Global health Prof helping World Health Day build healthier world
EVERY year on 07 April World Health Day, which is organised by the World Health Organisation (WHO), is celebrated with the main purpose of highlighting important health issues and to raise awareness about health and wellbeing whilst drawing the attention of people from around the globe.
This year’s theme ‘Building a fairer, healthier world’ aims to ensure everyone, everywhere is able to realise the right to good health. The WHO believes access to sufficient health care should not be a luxury reserved for the few and poor health is unfair and preventable and through this year’s World Health Day will raise awareness of the inequities prevalent within healthcare.
