 On the first weekend in October every year since 1991, millions of participants around the world take to the streets to share in TAFISA World Walking Day. TAFISA member organisations from every corner of the globe organise walking events on the same weekend. In 2009, this led to over 10 million participants all walking on the same weekend to promote and benefit from being physically active. The day is open to citizens of all ages, backgrounds, abilities and genders, and organisers benefit from a free promotional package supplied by TAFISA which includes:
- Use of the official title “World Walking Day“
- Use of official artwork, including logo and posters
- TAFISA handbook “How to organize Walking Events”
- Promotion of event via TAFISA and our website
- Integration of the event into the official WWD Calendar
The next WWD will be held 2nd and 3rd October 2010. For more information, please see the brochure and registration form below, or contact the TAFISA office. Registration forms should be returned to the TAFISA Office no later than September 13th 2010.

 The World Challenge Day (WCD, formerly International Challenge Day) is a friendly international competition in Sport for All and physical activity where communities from around the world compete against each other to motivate as many people as possible be physically active for only 15 minutes on a single day. Above all the event is a fun day that creates awareness and enthusiasm for fitness and active living in the participating communities.
World Challenge Day is open to communities of any size from any country, and since its beginning in 1991, TAFISA World Challenge Day has been growing rapidly, with over 58 million participants in 2009!
In 2010, TAFISA has updated the World Challenge Day concept to include both the traditional One-On-One Community Competition and the new World Challenge Day Cup. Communities participating in WCD are automatically included in both competitions, without any extra effort!
