This global event brings together patients, healthcare professionals, researchers, and advocacy groups to focus on the challenges and advancements in treating bronchiectasis.

Online platforms and social media campaigns using hashtags like #WorldBronchiectasisDay and #BronchiectasisAwareness help to spread information and connect individuals globally.

Healthcare providers and medical institutions participate by hosting educational seminars, workshops, and webinars to update clinicians on the latest research, treatment protocols, and best practices for managing bronchiectasis. These events aim to improve the knowledge and skills of healthcare professionals, ensuring better patient care.

Researchers and advocacy groups use the day to highlight ongoing research efforts, share new findings, and advocate for increased funding and resources for bronchiectasis research. They also work to influence healthcare policy and improve access to diagnostic tools and treatments.
