altitude sickness awareness campaigns

Altitude sickness awareness campaigns aim to educate people about the risks of experiencing altitude sickness when traveling to high elevations. These campaigns provide information on symptoms like headaches, nausea, and dizziness, and emphasize the importance of gradual acclimatization to high altitudes. They often share tips for prevention, such as staying hydrated and ascending slowly. The goal is to empower travelers with knowledge to recognize early signs of illness and seek help if needed, ultimately promoting safer high-altitude experiences and reducing health risks associated with rapid altitude changes.
