World Heart Day
World Heart Day (WHD) is observed and celebrated on 29th of September every year with the aim to increase awareness of cardiovascular diseases(CVDs) and ways to control them to reduce their global impact. The president of the World Heart Federation from 1997 to 1999, Antoni Bayés de Luna, had conceived the idea to celebrate World Heard day.
The theme of World Heart Day for this year(2022):
"Use Heart for Every Heart"
The meaning of the theme of World Heart day this year is:
Use Heart means to think differently. To make the right decisions. To act with courage. To help others. To engage with this important cause. The heart is the only organ you can hear and feel. It is the first and last sign of life. It is one of the few things with the potential to unite all of us as people.
For Every Heart involves the use of “FOR” and swings the focus from the actions themselves to the beneficiaries of the actions, allowing for wider application of the campaign while also making it more personal. We want World Heart Day messages to reach as many individuals as possible to help achieve cardiovascular health for every heart.
