World Health Day is a global health awareness day conducted by the World Health Organisation (WHO). This year the organisation is focused on recognising the role played by nurses and midwives in the health care system. World Health Day 2020 will shine a light on the vital role played by nurses and midwives in providing health care around the world, and call for a strengthening of the nursing and midwifery workforce.
“At least half of the world’s people are currently unable to obtain essential health services.”
