Move for MS 2025 took place during MS Awareness Month (March), a dedicated time to raise awareness about MS and inspire action. The core of this year’s campaign was a nationwide step challenge designed to turn movement into meaningful action.
About the initiative
This initiative not only promotes physical activity and exercise but also emphasizes the importance of connecting with the wider community
Move for MS is an initiative dedicated to championing people living with multiple sclerosis through a diverse array of inclusive sports activities.
The core of this year’s campaign was a nationwide step challenge designed to turn movement into meaningful action. In partnership with STEPPI, we launched a second nationwide step challenge, aimed at raising awareness and encouraging pledges for the MS community.
Participants formed teams, tracking their daily steps through the STEPPI app, turning movement into impact through friendly competition.The challenge brought together corporate partners ALDAR and ADQ and members of the public, with each step taken serving as a visible show of support for people living with MS in the UAE.
Move for MS 2024 took place during the Holy Month of Ramadan, a time of reflection, togetherness, spirituality, and solidarity.
Raising Awareness Through Collaboration
As part of our ongoing commitment to raising awareness, we worked with our corporate partners, Aldar and ADQ, to deliver impactful awareness sessions. Through live podcast interviews and virtual talks, we shared the stories of people living with MS. These sessions are key to building a deeper understanding of MS, helping to break down misconceptions, and encouraging the community to take meaningful action in support of the MS cause.
Our Partners
Our partners played a key role in these efforts, hosting awareness talks and podcast sessions to amplify the voices of those living with MS, highlight NMSS’ work, and inspire others to get involved.
