World Health Worker Week Starts April 1 – Join us!
As we celebrate World Health Worker Week and call for greater investment, protection and support for health workers – we encourage you to get involved!
This year World Health Worker Week is taking place April 1-7, 2024. It is a great opportunity to celebrate health workers and advocate for greater investment, protection, and support. Health workers should be able to do their jobs in safe environments, with the resources they need, and the training and education necessary.
Led by the Frontline Health Workers Coalition (FHWC), World Health Worker Week is a time to call on leaders and decision makers to translate promises into long-term investments in the health workforce and enact policies to protect them.
How can you get involved? Join us, FHWC, and partners online to raise awareness!
▶️ Across our Seed LinkedIn, Instagram, X, and Facebook accounts we will share messages and we encourage you to reshare and post your own messages to support the campaign and call for greater funding and faster implementation of commitments made to protect and support health workers.
▶️ Use the hashtags #WHWWeek and #SafeSupportedHealthWorkers.
▶️ Tag Seed Global Health, the Frontline Health Workers Coalition and the WHO on social media.
