Health leaders
We all need health. By investing in our health and that of others, we improve our life expectancy, our economies and our quality of living.
The world now has vaccinations against 30 deadly diseases and the number of children dying before the age of five has halved in 20 years.
To meet the needs of today and tomorrow, WHO must invest in science, in emergency preparedness, in efforts to tackle diseases like diabetes and heart disease and in the growing threat to health from climate change.
