World Health Day is celebrated annually on 7 April. The theme for 2021 was “Building a fairer, healthier world”.

WFIPP, as a member of the European Patients Forum, gave this answer to the following question

“As a patient /patient organisation, what is needed to build a fairer and healthier world?”

Fairer health systems and policies which will ultimately provide universal health coverage for all. Healthcare budgets must increase to ensure the sustainability of healthcare for all. 
The aim must be to dispel the disparities at global level. As an umbrella patient organization, WFIPP is pursuing these goals.
