World Health Day, celebrated on 7 April 2025, will kick off a year-long campaign on maternal and newborn health. The campaign, titled Healthy beginnings, hopeful futures, will urge governments and the health community to ramp up efforts to end preventable maternal and newborn deaths, and to prioritize women’s longer-term health and well-being.
WHO and partners will also share useful information to support healthy pregnancies and births, and better postnatal health.
The Campaign Goals include Raising awareness about gaps in maternal and newborn survival and the need to prioritize women’s longer-term well-being; Advocating for effective investments that improve the health of women and babies; To encourage collective action to support parents as well as health professionals who provide critical care, and to provide useful health information relating to pregnancy, childbirth, and the postnatal period.
