Message from the Chair of the International Podiatry Day Committee
The 8th of October is the International Podiatry Day, a worldwide common celebration to spread the word about the importance of foot and global health.
The IPD campaign has harmoniously sticked together Podiatrists from all over the world by sharing walks, public education, foot shaped food, foot centered arts, health science, raising global awareness about the importance of foot health impacting your daily and extraordinary activities.
Despite different competences and education all passionate and responsible Podiatrists celebrate together this special day promoting foot health from the very first day of everybody’s life
