On 7 April we mark World Health Day, also referred to by health activists as
People’s Health Day. The day marks the anniversary of the formation of the World
Health Organization in 1948. Yet, as the People’s Health Movement’s Co-Chairs

write, the links between World Health Day and some of the WHO’s most progressive
ideas have weakened over the years.
