First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, has called for stronger global collaboration and sustained support for science to improve health outcomes, as the world marks World Health Day 2026.
In a message to commemorate the day, themed “Together for Health. Stand with Science,” Oluremi said progress in health depends on innovation and cooperation across nations and sectors.
She noted that scientific partnerships have helped humanity overcome many health challenges and continue to guide efforts toward healthy living.
The First Lady also highlighted the importance of the One Health approach, which recognises the connection between the well-being of people, animals, plants, and the environment.
“As we mark this important day, as a global community, let us continue to support science, invest in health systems, and work together to build a healthier and a more resilient world for all,” she said.
