World Health Day
7 April All day
World Health Day, observed annually on April 7th, is a global initiative aimed at raising awareness about health issues and advocating for actions to improve health outcomes worldwide. Established by the World Health Organisation (WHO), World Health Day serves as a platform to address pressing health concerns, promote healthy living, and mobilise efforts towards achieving universal health coverage.
Each year, a specific theme is chosen to focus attention on a particular aspect of global health. The day encourages governments, non-governmental organisations, communities, and individuals to engage in activities that promote well-being and underscore the importance of health as a fundamental human right.
World Health Day plays a crucial role in fostering international collaboration and dialogue to address the challenges and opportunities in the realm of public health.
