The first World Health Assembly was arranged by the World Health Organization in 1948 at the World Health Organization (WHO)’s headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland. One of the most important decisions the Assembly made that year was to establish World Health Day.
World Health Day is on April 7th every year, and began in 1950. It marks the day the WHO was founded and is meant to raise awareness for a particular issue affecting global health. This effort by the WHO has been supported by governments and private organizations taking part in the initiative to spread awareness.
This holiday is an excellent opportunity for anyone to contribute to world health by doing something to make themselves healthier. After all, if everyone in the world makes an effort to improve their own personal health, this could have a large global impact.
