Today is World Health Day. This year's theme is "my health, my right" which champions the rights of everyone, everywhere to have access to quality health services, education, and information, as well as safe drinking water, clean air, good nutrition, quality housing, decent working and environmental conditions, and freedom from discrimination. The World Health Organization (WHO) has found that 4.5 billion people — more than half of the world’s population — were not fully covered by essential health services in 2021. An impactful video was created by WHO that illustrates this, you can watch it here - https://lnkd.in/gEWfdpYM #MyHealthMyRight

World Health Day 2024: 'My Health, My Right.' Every year on April 7th, Global Health Day promotes awareness and emphasizes the significance of well-being. WHO chose 'My Health, My Right' as the theme for World Health Day 2024. This theme emphasizes the fundamental human right to access high-quality healthcare, education, and information. World Health Day presents a unique opportunity for us to collectively reflect on our health and commit to prioritizing our well-being. Let's stand together, pledge to care for ourselves, and inspire others to do the same! By focusing on these critical aspects, we can create a society where everyone has equal opportunities and access to the resources needed to thrive. #worldhealthday https://lnkd.in/g8NS9sXU https://lnkd.in/gm9qz2t4

Across the globe, the fundamental right to health for millions is increasingly facing challenges. Various factors such as diseases, disasters, and conflicts are posing significant threats to lives, leading to suffering, hunger, and psychological trauma. Additionally, the burning of fossil fuels is exacerbating the climate crisis and compromising our access to clean air, resulting in alarming rates of indoor and outdoor air pollution-related deaths. It is noteworthy that the World Health Organization Council on the Economics of Health for All has identified that health is recognized as a human right in the constitutions of at least 140 countries. However, there remains a gap between constitutional recognition and practical implementation, with many countries failing to enact laws that ensure their populations have adequate access to healthcare services. This has resulted in a concerning statistic, revealing that a substantial portion of the global population—over 4.5 billion individuals—remained without full coverage of essential health services in 2021. Addressing these challenges requires concerted efforts and diplomatic collaboration to safeguard the right to health for all. To address these types of challenges, the theme for World Health Day 2024 is 'My health, my right’. We encourage everyone to get involved in World Health Day 2024 and make a difference in their communities and beyond. Whether you're a healthcare professional, advocate, policymaker, or individual passionate about health, your participation is crucial in advancing the right to health for all. #who #whorldhealthday

This World Health Day, themed "My Health, My Right," brings a critical reminder: In 2021, over half the world's population, at least 4.5 billion people, lacked full coverage of essential health services. This alarming statistic underscores the urgent need for collective action towards achieving universal health coverage. As we advocate for equitable healthcare access, it's vital to recognize the power of innovation, including virtual reality in healthcare and education, to bridge these gaps. By fostering policies and technologies that ensure healthcare for all, we can transform "My Health, My Right" from an aspiration into a global reality. #WorldHealthDay2024 #HealthForAll #UniversalHealthCoverage

Every year, 7th April marks #WorldHealthDay, a global initiative to raise awareness about a specific health topic of concern that affects people all over the world. This year, the theme is ‘My Health, My Right.’ Despite over 140 countries recognising health as a human right in their constitutions, many have yet to implement laws guaranteeing access to vital health services. Through smart technology, Alcidion aims to support this accessibility mission, while also making healthcare more affordable and accountable. Together, let's work towards a world where everyone can enjoy their right to good health. #MyHealthMyRight https://hubs.ly/Q02rWDKs0
