GO Day – Purple Steps for Health

18. - 19. 9. 2026
Slovenia

We will walk towards Celjska Koča as part of “Purple Steps for Health”, showing our support for women affected by gynaecological cancers. Walking together in purple will send a visible message of solidarity while raising awareness about these diseases. The walk is part of World GO Day and Europa Donna Slovenia’s Purple September campaign, with this year’s slogan “Take Care of Your Essential Parts” (“Poskrbi za svoje nepogrešljive kose”). It is one of 22 activities across Slovenia bringing people together for women’s health and helping break stigma.
