On World Health Day 2026, we unite and mobilize the region under the theme “Together for health” celebrating the power of scientific collaboration to protect the health of people, animals, plants, and the planet. This year we spotlight One Health and the multilateral cooperation needed to turn evidence into action.
Together for science
Choose evidence. Trust facts. Support science-led health, for people, animals, and the planet.
Ask. Share. Together for science.
- Ask a health question that matters to you.
- Share how science helps solve it.
- Join the global conversation with #StandWithScience and #WorldHealthDay.
Commit to science-based policy and One Health action
Governments and institutions are called to strengthen investment in science, support WHO’s normative role, and embed evidence in health, climate, food, and environmental decision-making.
Activate. Explain. Lead.
Collaborating Centres and the scientific community are mobilized to make science accessible and understandable, share clear explanations of evidence, engage with the public, and serve as visible, trusted voices championing facts and science-based solutions.
Be ambassadors of science
Show patients and communities how science guides care, and why evidence saves lives.
