World Health Day: Let’s Spread The Word About The Importance Of Elder Healthcare

World Health Day is sponsored by WHO, the World Health Organization, and is recognized on April 7th of every year. World Health Day is one of eight annual global health awareness campaigns and events sponsored by WHO. It celebrates the day that WHO was recognized by health bodies and organizations worldwide.

The first global health gathering was in 1948, but it wasn’t until1950 that April 7th was officially recognized as World Health Day. Every year, World Health Day is based on a theme. In2023, the theme is “Health for All” and it is designed to focus on the 75th anniversary of the establishment of the World Health Organization.
