Since its foundation in 1992, EHF (European Headache Federation), a non-profit organisation, has sought to improve the life of those affected by headache in Europe.
To do so, EHF dedicates its efforts to improving awareness of headache disorders and their impact amongst governments, health care providers and consumers across Europe.
To educate Europe about headache is one of the main objectives of the EHF. Teaching of key players such as young doctors, neurologists, general practitioners and all those involved in headache management about the seriousness of headache disorders is focused.
EHC26: International Conference Featuring the latest Findings on Headaches and Migraines, 9–12 December 2026 in Berlin
Europe’s largest headache congress – will be held in Berlin, Germany, from December 9 to 12, 2026. Experts from around the world will gather to discuss new scientific findings on prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. The high-profile plenary sessions will feature interactive workshops, current debates, forward-looking updates, and engaging poster presentations addressing key issues in headache medicine and the future of this field.
The EHC26 will mark an important milestone with its 20th anniversary. The two congress chairs are Professor Uwe Reuter of Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin and the University Hospital Bonn (UKB), and Professor Mark Braschinsky of the University of Tartu in Estonia.
The theme “Walls Come Down” offers a unique, distinctive, and forward-looking perspective based on the successful and inspiring previous congresses of the European Headache Federation: “The theme is intended to reflect both Berlin’s remarkable history and our shared commitment to overcoming barriers in headache research and clinical practice.”
Drawing on the clinical expertise of the participants and supported by up-to-date real-world data, groundbreaking and clinically significant research findings on secondary headache disorders will be presented, laying the groundwork for a dynamic exchange of ideas between basic and clinical research.
