Health Topics with Messages to Learn & Share

Many hundreds of thousands of children die each year because their parents and others lack basic health information and skills. Children in the global south are a fantastic resource. Like children everywhere, they are competent and enthusiastic. They can learn, collect and share basic health ideas and skills to keep healthy themselves, and to help others.

“At Children for Health it is our dream that, before children leave primary school, every child will have learnt and shared each of these important health messages.”
Clare Hanbury
Founder of Children for Health
