Healthy World
Introduction
Healthy World is an activity which will be designed keeping in mind the high mortality rate in developing countries from various diseases including HIV/AIDS. This activity will be addressing two of the eight Millennium Goals of United Nations. The activity will talk about the causes of particular disease, its symptoms and ways to prevent the disease.
Disease Addressed
- HIV
- AIDS
- Malaria
(List will increase with time)
Why This Activity
This is a very important issue for developing and under-developed countries. Every day thousands of people die due to HIV/AIDS in Africa. Water borne diseases like Malaria are very common in many Asian countries. The relevance of this problem can be understood by the fact that even UN has made a point to achieve better health facilities and to fight AIDS in their Millennium Goals.
