World Health Day 2012:
7 April 2012 -- Ageing and health - to which each and every one
of us can relate - is the theme of this year's World Health Day. Using
the slogan "Good health adds life to years", campaign activities and
materials will focus on how good health throughout life can help older
men and women lead full and productive lives and be a resource for their
families and communities. Over the past century life expectancy has
increased dramatically and the world will soon have more older people
than children. This social transformation represents both challenges and
opportunities. In particular, countries may only have a single
generation to prepare their health and social systems for an ageing
world.
The theme for World Health Day 2012 is
Good health adds life to years
