Thank you for supporting European Hormone Day 2024! This year, we focused on raising public awareness of the small steps we can all take towards good hormone health. This was inspired by the Annex to the Milano Declaration with 10 Recommendations for Good Hormone Health.
The campaign was also a chance to bring a public focus to the four policy areas that are at the heart of ESE's work in the endocrine community: cancer, obesity, endocrine-disrupting chemicals and rare endocrine diseases.
We hope you'll join us in continuing the conversation about the importance of hormone health. We encourage everyone to keep using the hashtag #BecauseHormonesMatter so we can amplify the message.
The toolkit below includes materials to share on social media or print out to use at events. Although they were created for European Hormone Day, please use them any time!
Materials in English are available to download below. Scroll down for translations of key materials in additional languages.
