Abstract

On October 11, 2004, the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP), the World Health Organization (WHO), and the European Federation of IASP Chapters (EFIC) held a Global Day against Pain campaign to promote pain relief as a human right. International leaders in pain management and public health participated in the full day program that took place in Geneva Switzerland and was simultaneously broadcast around the world through the Word Wide Web. The declaration and statements that were released and announced, and selected contents of the program are summarized in this report.
