 Health is wealth, so the saying goes. Health is more than the absence of disease. It’s the presence of physical strength, mental clarity, emotional balance, and social support. Every year on April 7th, we come together to recognize World Health Day – a global reminder that health is a fundamental human right. This day is not just about acknowledging the importance of healthcare systems, but also about promoting healthier lifestyles, equal access to care, and overall well-being for people everywhere.
World Health Day, celebrated annually on April 7th, marks the founding of the World Health Organization (WHO) in 1948 and serves as a platform to raise awareness about a specific health topic each year. The theme for this year is "Healthy beginnings, hopeful futures," focusing on the importance of investing in maternal and fetal health to shape healthier lives and stronger societies. Let’s use today to advocate for stronger, more inclusive healthcare systems, create awareness on pregnancy and their safety as well as educate ourselves on building a world that promotes maternal health.
