World Health Day (April, 07)

World Health Day is celebrated globally on April 7 every year to raise awareness about physical, mental, and social wellness. It is an initiative of the World Health Organization (WHO) to promote health and well-being for all individuals. 

The day aims to raise awareness about health issues, encouraging conversations and discussions about ways to maintain good health, and advocating actions on a global scale. This year, it marks the 75th anniversary of the World Health Organization, which was established in 1948.

The theme for World Health Day 2023 is ‘Health For All”. The theme highlights the public health successes of the WHO that played a role in improving the quality of life of the past seven decades. It also calls on the world to address the present and future health-related challenges.
