Epilepsy Blog Relay™ Background on the Relay
Epilepsy Blog Relay™ Background In June 2015, Living Well With Epilepsy launched the first ever Epilepsy Blog Relay™. The effort was created to harness the power of epilepsy bloggers to raise awareness of epilepsy related stigma. The concept was simple: 30 bloggers and organizations each posted on their own site, each taking one day of the month. Bloggers were asked to acknowledge the blog relay and to promote the next day’s post. This effort was extremely successful. In less than 24 hours of announcing the initiative, 10 bloggers had filled 30% of the slots. In less than 5 days, all 30 slots were filled and Living Well With Epilepsy was turning people away with the promise of another relay in November during Epilepsy Awareness Month. Participants were from the US, and England, Cameroon, Australia, and Canada. All participants saw a sharp increase in traffic to their sites. Since then Since its inception in June 2015, we have successfully executed eight Epilepsy Blog Relays™ between 2015 and 2017. Previous sponsors include Sunovion Pharmaceuticals, Lundbeck, Eisai Inc, Phoenix Children’s Hospital. We have also developed relationships with epilepsy related non-profits. These organizations support and amplify the message during each relay. Overarching Theme The overarching theme as seen below was originally derived from language included in the resolution passed by the World Health Assembly in May 2015: “EPILEPSY AWARENESS: Maximizing Collaboration, Eliminating Stigma” The weekly themes are designed to both support the overarching theme and to encourage greater collaboration throughout the community: Week 1: Epilepsy in Everyday Life
Week 2: Epilepsy and Family: Awareness Matters
Week 3: Tech and Innovation in Epilepsy
Week 4: Creativity and Epilepsy
