World Polio Day Walkathon 2026 | Every Step Towards a Polio-Free World

Every step counts when the destination is a polio-free world! World Polio Day Walkathon 2026 was organised by Rotary and Rotaract District 3191 on 24th October 2026 in Bengaluru to spread awareness about polio eradication and highlight the importance of vaccination in preventing the disease.

Members of Rotaract Bangalore East joined Rotarians, Rotaractors and interactors from across the district, coming together to support the global End Polio Now initiative.

The walkathon commenced at Town Hall at 7:30 AM, with participants proceeding along the designated route through Ravindra Kalakshetra, Poornima Theatre Road, Lalbagh Main Road and Lalbagh East Gate, concluding at the Mysore Horticulture Society.

With the iconic "END POLIO NOW" message accompanying the participants, the walkathon served as a platform to unite the Rotary family in promoting public awareness, encouraging vaccination and reinforcing the importance of continued efforts towards a polio-free world.

Through their participation, members demonstrated their commitment to community service, public health awareness and global humanitarian initiatives.

Because every step, every voice and every effort brings us closer to a world free from polio!

Two drops. One mission. A polio-free world!
