After careful consideration, the European Heart Network (EHN) has decided to leave the platform X (formerly Twitter) as of 31 January 2025.
Since its acquisition in 2022, the platform has undergone significant changes that have impacted its role as a safe and supportive space for civil society organisations to engage in constructive dialogue. The amplification of harmful discourse, misinformation, and hate speech has made it increasingly challenging for EHN to align with the platform’s direction. As an organisation committed to promoting cardiovascular health and preventing non-communicable diseases (NCDs), EHN prioritises creating and engaging in respectful and inclusive digital spaces. With this in mind, we have made the decision to focus our efforts on platforms that better reflect these values.
We are grateful for the support we have received over the years on X and invite our audience to continue following our work on other platforms:
We remain committed to raising awareness about the importance of cardiovascular health and continuing to advocate for policy and system-level changes to reduce the burden of NCDs. Thank you for your continued engagement and support as we transition away from X.
