#WHO#Health#Funding, January 19th, 2023 – The World Health Organisation is making huge efforts towards global health, launching on January 15th, an appeal for 1.5 billion Us dollars to protect the health of the most vulnerable populations in 41 emergencies globally, this year. In a release, the organization informs that the money will cover health emergencies that need the highest level of response, aiming to reach 87 million people. This is crucial as many will require health assistance this year, according to the WHO Director General.

“This year, an estimated 166 million people will need life saving humanitarian health assistance; this is heartbreaking and it’s avoidable. To do this, we need support totaling 1.5 billion US dollars,” he said.
