Dear Colleagues,

Tomorrow, on Friday 7 April, we celebrate World Health Day<https://sdr.cmail19.com/t/d-l-zkijdll-idiukyzdu-y/> and start a year-long campaign to mark the 75thanniversary of WHO. It is an important opportunity for us to look back at past achievements, and make sure that our message is spread widely: it's time to act to achieve health equity for persons with disabilities.

You can find more information and resources about the WHO campaign on this webpage<https://sdr.cmail19.com/t/d-l-zkijdll-idiukyzdu-j/>.

We also highlight WHO's key messages and milestones on health equity for persons with disabilities on this webpage<https://sdr.cmail19.com/t/d-l-zkijdll-idiukyzdu-t/>. Do make the most of our social media assets<https://sdr.cmail19.com/t/d-l-zkijdll-idiukyzdu-h/> to spread key messages with your network!
