sites:
The World Health Organization is the
United Nations specialized agency for health. It was established on 7 April 1948.
WHO's objective, as set out in its Constitution, is
the attainment by all peoples of the highest possible level of health. Health
is defined in WHO's Constitution as a state of
complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of
disease or infirmity. WHO is governed by 192 Member States through the World
Health Assembly. The Health Assembly is composed of
representatives from WHO's Member States. The main tasks of the World Health
Assembly are to approve the WHO programme and the
budget for the following biennium and to decide major policy questions.
