When is World Health Day and why is it important for Afghanistan?
World Health Day is observed on 7 April. The date marks the founding of WHO and highlights a global health theme each year.
What the figure or term means
WHO estimates 14.4 million people need humanitarian health assistance in Afghanistan in 2026.
The day can connect health-system funding, maternal care, disease surveillance, nutrition, and rural access without substituting awareness for services.
The date is fixed; the annual theme and health figures should be checked each year.
Use the source publication date when connecting an observance or historical event to a current statistic or appeal.
