Review on WHO

“WHO Constitution states that ‘Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity’. WHO, the parent organisation being ECOSOC is a major spoke in the wheel of United Nations common family system. It has been also in the past and in the present actively and symbiotically involved in improving international public health as well as intervening in humanitarian crises on the issues of health and well-being. Its complementary role with other important international and national actors like ICRC, UNCERF, UNDAC, EM-DAT and NDMA in West Asia, Africa, Latin America, South and South East Aia cannot be understated in contemporary times.
