World Health Day Slogans in English

Value for your health before it is too late. 

Health is the wealth we all need. Without health,

 everything is incomplete.

HISTORY OF WORLD HEALTH DAY

To talk about World Health Day, we need to talk about the creation 

of the World Health Organization as a whole. In December 1945, 

officials of Brazil and China proposed the creation of an international 

health organization, that is all-encompassing and absolutely independent

 from any government powers.

Half a year later, in New York, in July 1946, the constitution of the 

World Health Organization was approved. Said constitution entered 

into force on April 7, 1948, as 61 countries signed in agreement for 

the inception of the NGOs.

As one of the first official acts of WHO, they created the celebration 

of World Health Day. It was first observed on July 22, 1949, but the 

date was later changed to April 7, the establishment of WHO, to encourage 

student participation.

Since 1950, the Worth Health Day uses a different theme and theme each

 year selected by the current WHO Director-General, based on the 

suggestions of the member governments and staff.
World Health Day provides a global opportunity to focus attention on 

important public health issues that affect the international community. 

On the occasion of World Health Day, promotional programs are 

launched that continue for a long time after April 7.

Why is World Health Day celebrated?

World Health Day (WHD) is celebrated on 7 April every year to mark

 the anniversary of the founding of WHO in 1948. 

Each year, a theme is selected to highlight a priority area 

of public health concern in the world.

What is the world Health Day theme for 2023?

World Health Day 2023 will focus on the theme, 'Health for All,'

marking the 75th anniversary of the World Health Organization (WHO).

What is the full form of WHO?

The full form of WHO is World Health Organisation. It is a 

specialized agency of the United Nations responsible for 

international public health.
