• Global health initiatives are programs and projects which help address global health
issues, concerns and trends. Global health is a new trend in which the World Health
Organization addresses health concerns in cooperation with member-nations and
private international organizations as partners. Along with the health initiatives to prevent
if not reduce the prevalence of health problems, the United Nations formulated the Eight
millennium development goals in the year 2000 so that nations across the world can
reduce poverty and hunger, promote universal education for all and gender equality,
reduce mortality among children, improve maternal health, combat HIV/AIDS, malaria
and other communicable diseases, ensure environmental sustainability, and develop
global partnership in addressing global problems.
Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus causing COVID-19
COVID-19 is a disease caused by a new coronavirus called SARS-CoV-2. World Health
Organization (WHO) first learned this new virus on December 31, 2019, following a report of a
cluster of cases of ‘viral pneumonia’ in Wuhan, People’s Republic of China. (WHO, 2020)
The WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (WHO FCTC) is the prime international
treaty negotiated under WHO. The WHO FCTC came into existence in reaction to the global
epidemic of tobacco use and abuse. It reaffirms the right of every individual across the world
to the highest standard of health-promoting public health and providing new legal means for
global health cooperation.
The following summarizes the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (WHO
FCTC) provisions:
1. Price and tax measures to reduce the demand for tobacco, and
2. non-price measures to reduce the demand for tobacco, namely:
• Protection from exposure to tobacco smoke;
• Regulation of the contents of tobacco products;
• Regulation of tobacco product disclosures;
• New packaging and labeling of tobacco products;
• Education, communication, training, and public awareness;
•Demand reduction measures concerning tobacco dependence and cessation; and
• Tobacco advertising, promotion, and sponsorship.

• In May 2013, the 66th World Health Assembly adopted the “Mental health action plan
for 2013–2020”. This action plan was extended to 2030 at the 72nd World Health
Assembly to ensure its alignment with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
The plan will help countries achieve Sustainable Development Goal target 3.4 – by
2030, reduce by one-third premature deaths from non-communicable diseases through
prevention and treatment, and promote mental health and well-being.
• The action plan was developed in response to the growing burden of mental health
disorders and the challenges that health systems around the world are facing to
respond to the needs of people with mental health problems. The action plan is a
landmark achievement that focuses international attention on a long-neglected
problem and is firmly rooted in the principles of human rights.
