World Health Day 2023: History
World Health Day was started as the day of the foundation of WHO. In 1948, the nations of the world came together to establish the WHO to promote health, keep the world safe, and serve the vulnerable, so that everyone everywhere can stay healthy and receive the highest level of care. Two years later, in 1950, the first World Health Day was celebrated on 7 April and since then it is celebrated every year on this day.
