World Days

World Tuberculosis Day, World Asthma Day, World AIDS Day and World No Tobacco Day are events which give all of us the opportunity to highlight the importance of continuing to fight for very important causes

The Union is particularly involved in organising World TB Day in very close collaboration with the Stop TB Partnership. Written material is sent to all our members and other interested organisations to stimulate the organisation of their own local events.

World Days represent an opportunity to highlight issues for government officials and the community as a whole. These days and all related events and manifestations are a powerful tool to advocate for better health at local, but also at global level.

Information on all these World Days can be found on the Internet.
