A meaningful event was organized to mark "October 4 – World Walking Day" through the collaboration of Fırat University’s Faculty of Health Sciences (Departments of Nutrition and Dietetics and Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation) and the Elazığ Provincial Health Directorate. Academics, students, and specialists from the Elazığ Provincial Health Directorate participated enthusiastically in the event, which was held under the theme "A Healthier You with Every Step."
The event took place on October 8 at 13:30 in the 50th Anniversary Park on the Rectorate Campus, beginning with the opening of a healthy living stand set up by the Elazığ Provincial Health Directorate. Following the activities at the stand—where participants received information—a large-scale awareness walk was held to highlight the importance of healthy living.
The event emphasized the role of regular physical activity and a balanced diet in preventing chronic diseases—particularly obesity—as well as their multifaceted contributions to heart, muscle, bone, immune, and mental health.
It was stated that the Fırat University Faculty of Health Sciences would continue, without interruption, its awareness-raising efforts, inter-institutional collaborations, and community engagement activities aimed at fostering public awareness regarding healthy nutrition and an active lifestyle.
