On April 7 we celebrate World Health Day 2023 with the theme "Health for All". This theme speaks to the vision of a future where all people have access to health services when and where they need them without obstacle or hardship. In a world where there is "Health for All", health care services are accessible, equitable, inclusive, and sustainable for everyone.
 

75 Years of the World Health Organization

This year also marks the 75th anniversary of the World Health Organization and the World Health Day campaign. Founded in 1948 to promote global health and safety, the World Health Organization remains a pillar in the advancement of public health and health information around the world.
