WORLD HEALTH DAY – 2021
April 7 of each year marks the celebration of World Health Day, the celebration has aimed to create awareness of a specific health theme to highlight a priority area of concern for the World Health Organization.
The theme for World Health Day 2021 is “Building a fairer, healthier world for everyone”.
World Health Day 2021 comes at a time when the Covid-19 pandemic has undercut recent health gains, pushed more people into poverty and food insecurity, and amplified gender, social and health inequities. This World Health Day, we’re calling for action to eliminate health inequities, as part of a year-long global campaign to bring people together to build a fairer, healthier world. The campaign highlights WHO’s constitutional principle that “the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health is one of the fundamental rights of every human being without distinction of race, religion, political belief, economic or social condition”.
