Good Morning Teachers and my dear friends.
Today, we all are here for the occasion of World Health Day. With all the joy, I am going to present my speech on World Health Day. I am thankful that my teachers gave me such an opportunity to present this speech in front of you all.
World Health organization every year on 7th April, celebrates Health Day worldwide. This day is celebrated to create awareness among the people about the benefits of remaining healthy. If we spread awareness about different diseases among the people, we will be able to help people who suffer from those diseases.
The World Health Organization was formed in Geneva in 1948. On 7th April, the world health assembly was held for the very first time, and on that day, it was decided that every year on 7th April, we will celebrate the day as World Health Day. Based on different themes every year, this day is immensely celebrated. For the year 2020, the theme was ‘Support Nurses and Midwives’. For the previous year, 2019, the theme was ‘Universal Health Coverage: Everyone, Everywhere’.
The government celebrates this day worldwide, including all the participant countries and different NGOs and organizations. This day reminds people about the different major health issues that people around the world suffer. World Health Organization organize several programs targeting the main issues of health. WHO is working immensely to eradicate several health issues in developing countries like chickenpox, polio, smallpox, TB, leprosy, etc.
But this day should not just remain as a day for the reminder; we all should take this day seriously. It should work as an alert for all of us to pay more attention to our health and other things around us. We often ignore our health thinking it won’t be a problem. But minor symptoms can also lead to a significant health issue afterwards, if not treated. We need to understand that health is wealth. For our growth and improvement, a healthy body with a healthy mind is necessary. The slogan of “Health for all” should be taken seriously by everybody for a guiding vision of a better future.
A country can also grow with healthy people. Unhealthy group of people cannot contribute much to the country. So, on this World Health Day, I would request you all to pay attention to your health as well as the health of your family. Maintain your health by taking some time out in a day for exercising and adopt excellent and healthy diets and eating habits. Always prefer home-cooked food, even though junk food attracts you. Maintain the amount of carbohydrate, protein and fat that you intake. Intaking enough amounts of vitamins and minerals are necessary.
This world health day, we all should pledge for good habits for keeping ourselves healthy. “The first wealth is our health” according to Ralph Waldo Emerson should be our slogan. So, let’s be healthy ourselves and keep everyone around us healthy as well.
Thank you.
