Join the next #ThisWay Autumn Challenge leading up to the EHC Conference 2024
Unlike past challenges, we’re all in this together. The goal? To collectively cover 1000 km — half the distance from Brussels to Sofia — in just two weeks leading up to the EHC Annual Conference to be held from 4-6 October in Sofia, Bulgaria. Every small effort can lead to big impacts, and individual contributions, when combined, make a big difference!
