WHCA assists WHO with the strategy and launch for World Health Day 2006.


WHCA helped WHO HQ with communication activities related to World Health Day 2006 and the launch of the World Health Report on Human Resources for Health (www.who.int/hrh/en/). WHCA, under contract to WHO, helped the Human Resources for Health (HRH) Department in the development of a communications strategy around the theme of Working Together for Health. WHCA graphic designer Tuuli Sauren (www.inspirit-int.com) designed the WHD logo and tool kit, developing the slogan “Working Together for Health” (www.who.int/world-health-day/2006/toolkit/en/). WHCA helped HRH with press relations at their London launch of the World Health Report. WHCA associate Steve Turner (www.turner-associates.org) developed a video news release and a series of short Public Service Announcements, which aired on CNN.
