Home > World Lymphedema Day / March Lymphedema Awareness Month
World Lymphedema Day is Coming Soon…
Tell your story. Spark awareness. Inspire change.
Change begins when we listen, share, and amplify the voices of our lymphedema community.
Lymphedema affects approximately 1.25 million Canadians—that’s 1 in 33 people. While more common than many realize, it can be an isolating and emotionally challenging condition. Pathways reaches readers across Canada and around the world, helping to amplify the voices of those affected. Sharing these stories is crucial: it fosters connection, reduces feelings of isolation, and reminds people that they are not alone.
Join the global lymphedema community in raising awareness, promoting education, and providing or participating in opportunities for interaction for patients, family members, and health care professionals concerned about lymphedema.
Ways you can participate
We’re giving complimentary digital access to read the digital edition of the Spring issue online.
The Spring issue is coming March 2, 2026. Click the button below to sign up to receive digital access information when this issue is released.
If you are living with lymphedema, you are not alone. You have access to information, resources, contacts, and support from people who know what you’re going through from their own personal experiences. These provincial lymphedema associations can put you in touch with the local resources in your area. If you’re not already a member, consider joining your local association. Membership pricing is very reasonable and includes a subscription to Pathways magazine.
