World Health Day- Building a fairer, healthier world!

The theme of World Health Day 2021 is “Building a fairer, healthier world”.

All over the world, some groups struggle to make ends meet with little daily income, have poorer housing conditions and education, fewer employment opportunities, experience greater gender inequality, and have little or no access to safe environments, clean water and air, food security and health services. This leads to unnecessary suffering, avoidable illness, and premature death. And it harms our societies and economics.

This is not only unfair: It is preventable: That is why we are calling on leaders to ensure that everyone has living and working conditions that are conducive to good health. At the same time, we urge leaders to monitor health inequities, and to ensure that all people can access quality health services when and where they need them.
