UHC Day 2024 : Health: it's on the government !

 UHC Day 2024 Theme: Health: it's on the government!

When populations are healthy, communities and economies prosper. That is why this Universal Health Coverage Day 2024 we call on decision makers around the world to protect people from financial hardship when accessing health services. 

It is the responsibility of governments to ensure that healthcare is always affordable or free, particularly for the poorest and most vulnerable among us. 

Join us in starting discussions and taking action to make financial protection and #HealthForAll a reality.

Background : Each year on 12 December, the world celebrates International Universal Health Coverage Day (UHC Day), an official UN-designated day, to raise awareness of the need for strong, equitable and resilient health systems and universal health coverage (UHC). 

UHC is based on the principle that everyone, everywhere should have access to quality essential health services without suffering financial hardship. It is a goal that cuts across all health targets and is such a beacon of hope for a healthier and more equitable world. 

UHC Day marks the anniversary of the UN’s historic and unanimous endorsement of UHC in 2012 as an essential priority for international development. Since then, it has become the annual rallying point for the growing movement for health for all. 

Every 12 December (12.12), advocates raise their voices to share the stories of the millions of people still waiting for health, to call on leaders to make smarter investments in health and to remind the world the imperative of Health for All.

The high cost of health services is the primary reason people miss out on essential health care. These costs often force families to choose between paying for medicines or a visit to the doctor and other necessities, such as food, housing and education.

Health costs and illness should never push people into poverty! Investing in universal health coverage and financial protection not only enhances health and well-being but also fosters greater equity and social cohesion.

Everyone should have access to an affordable core package of essential health services, including quality medicines. No-one should be pushed into poverty when accessing these services.

Governments – financial protection for health is on you! #UHCDay 

As part of Universal Health Coverage Day's, Trinity Care Foundation Public Health Initiatives!

The Man and the Biosphere (MAB) Programme

 The Man and the Biosphere (MAB) Programme.

The Man and the Biosphere (MAB) programme is an intergovernmental scientific programme that aims to establish a scientific basis for enhancing the relationship between people and their environments. It combines the natural and social sciences with a view to improving human livelihoods and safeguarding natural and managed ecosystems, thus promoting innovative approaches to economic development that are socially and culturally appropriate and environmentally sustainable.

Biosphere reserves are ‘learning places for sustainable development’. They are sites for testing interdisciplinary approaches to understanding and managing changes and interactions between social and ecological systems, including conflict prevention and management of biodiversity. They are places that provide local solutions to global challenges. Biosphere reserves include terrestrial, marine and coastal ecosystems. Each site promotes solutions reconciling the conservation of biodiversity with its sustainable use.

Biosphere reserves are nominated by national governments and remain under the sovereign jurisdiction of the states where they are located. Biosphere Reserves are designated under the intergovernmental MAB Programme by the Director-General of UNESCO following the decisions of the MAB International Coordinating Council (MAB-ICC). Their status is internationally recognized. 

Biosphere Reserves involve local communities and all interested stakeholders in planning and management.

The 12 Biosphere Reserves in India are as follow;

1. The Panna Biosphere Reserve falls in bio-geographic zones of Deccan Peninsula and Biotic Province of Central highlands. 
2. Sunderban is the largest delta and mangrove forest in the world. The Indian Sunderban is bound on the west by river Muriganga and on the east by rivers Harinbhahga and Raimangal. 
3. The Nokrek Biosphere Reserve is located in the northeast of India on the Tura Range, which forms part of the Meghalaya Plateau (average altitude: 600 metres). 
4. Khangchendzonga, located in the state of Sikkim, bordering Nepal to the west and Tibet (China) to the north-west, this biosphere reserve is one of the highest ecosystems in the world, reaching elevations of 1,220 to 8,586 metres above sea level. 
5. Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve exemplifies the tropical forest biome, and falls within the Western Ghats system which portray the confluence of Afro-tropical and Indo-Malayan biotic zones of the world.   
6. Agasthyamala Biosphere Reserve is located in the southernmost end of the Western Ghats and incorporates peaks towering 1,868m above sea level fall within the Tirunelveli and Kanyakumari districts of Tamil Nadu and the Thiruvananthapuram and Kollam districts of Kerala, Southern India.
7. The Gulf of Mannar endowed with three distinct Coastal ecosystems namely coral reef, seagrass bed and mangroves is  considered one of the world’s richest region from a marine biodiversity perspective. 
8. The Great Nicobar Biosphere Reserve harbours a wide spectrum of ecosystems comprising tropical wet evergreen forests, mountain ranges reaching a height of 642 m (Mt. Thullier) above sea level, and coastal plains. 
9. The Nanda Devi Biosphere Reserve, located in the Himalayan Mountains in the northern part of the country, includes as core areas the Nanda Devi and Valley of Flowers National Parks, which are one World Heritage site. 
10. The Pachmarhi Biosphere Reserve is located in the biogeographical region of the Deccan Peninsula and the Biotic Province of Central India.  
11. The Achanakmar-Amarkantak Biosphere Reserve is the most dramatic and ecologically diverse landscape in the Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh states of India. 
12. Located in northeast India, the Similipal Biosphere Reserve lies within two biogeographical regions: the Mahanadian east coastal region of the Oriental realm and the Chhotanagpur biotic province of the Deccan peninsular zone.

The MAB programme aims to establish a scientific basis for enhancing the relationship between people and their environments.

Today, 3rd November 2024 is International Day for Biosphere Reserves 🌲 🌏 

The International Day for Biosphere Reserves is an invitation to take inspiration from the solutions already implemented in these spaces to build genuinely sustainable development everywhere, with full respect for nature and for the living world.

Bridging The Digital Divide

 Bridging The Digital Divide 

Trinity Care Foundation is creating a world of opportunities by installing computer labs in various government schools in Karnataka 

15-year-old Gayatri J, a 9th grade student at Government High School (GHS) Venkatagiri Kote in Chintamani, has never touched a computer but soon she will be learning how to operate it in her school. Her excitement knows no limits. 

A not-for-profit organisation, Trinity Care Foundation (TCF), working for the betterment of the underprivileged sections of society, has inaugurated a computer lab with 15 Lenovo desktops. In June 2024, a computer teacher will be appointed to kick-start the much-needed computer education at the all-girls school. 550 students, including Gayatri J, will benefit from the programme implemented by TCF on behalf of corporate organizations as part of their CSR projects. It’s the first time the students of the school will be imparted training in computers. 

School headmaster, GM Manujantha is feeling relieved and grateful that students in the school will have access to computers. “90% of the students belong to socially and economically weak backgrounds. Most of their parents work on daily wages. They can’t possibly afford a computer so this is a golden opportunity for the students to learn to handle a system. Computer education is a must these days,” says Manjunatha.

Evidence on how the Tobacco Industry targets Children

 

Evidence on how the Tobacco Industry targets Children. 

Key facts

There are 1.3 billion tobacco users worldwide. Tobacco kills around 8 million people every year (more than 7 million active smokers and over 1 million non-smokers exposed to second-hand smoke), including 1 million in the Americas. The life expectancy of smokers is at least ten years less than that of non-smokers.

Tobacco is the only legal consumer product that kills up to half of its users when used exactly as intended by the manufacturer. Tobacco companies spent over 8 billion dollars on marketing and advertising.

Children and adolescents who use e-cigarettes at least double their chance of smoking cigarettes later in life.

Safe Drinking Water Project

 The State of the World’s Drinking Water report notes that over 2 billion people have gained access to safe drinking water in the past two decades. This progress, while positive, is fragile and inequitable with one-quarter of the world’s population left behind. Climate change is increasing the frequency and intensity of droughts and floods, which exacerbate water insecurity, disrupt supplies and devastate communities. Meanwhile rapid urbanization is increasing the strain on cities’ capacity to deliver water to the millions of people living in in-formal communities and slums. 

“Providing greater access to safe drinking water has saved many lives, most of them children. But climate change is eating into those achievements,” said Dr Maria Neira, WHO Director, Department of Environment, Climate Change and Health. 

It is estimated that waterborne diseases have an economic burden of approximately USD 600 million a year in India. This is especially true for drought- and flood-prone areas, which affected a third of India’s population in the past couple of years ~ as per UNICEF India. 

All children have the right to clean water and basic sanitation, as stated in the Convention on the Rights of a Child. When families do not have a safe and reliable water source, preferably direct to their home, then it is often women and children that are responsible for collecting water.

World Health Day 2024

The theme for World Health Day 2024 is 'My health, my right’.

The year 2024 marks the 76th anniversary of WHO and as a part of celebration WHO has chosen 'My Health, My Right' as the theme of World Health Day 2024 which focuses on the fundamental human right: access to quality health care, education and information. 

Established in 1950, the day also commemorates founding of World Health Organisation, a specialized agency of the United Nations dedicated to international public health. World Health Day is aimed at raising awareness about global health issues and encourage people to live healthier. It was established by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 1948 and has been celebrated every year since then.

Theme of World Health Day 2024 : 

The theme for this year's World Health Day 'My health, my right' highlights that getting access to essential health services should no longer be a privilege but one's right. As per The WHO Council on the Economics of Health for All, at least 140 countries recognize health as a human right in their constitution, yet countries are not passing and putting into practice laws to ensure their populations are entitled to access health services.
