As my grandmother used to say, “The person who has no health has nothing”. Being in good health must be understood not only as the lack of disease, but also as enjoying a state of full physical, mental and social health. Ensuring a healthy life and encouraging wellbeing for everyone, at all ages, is essential for sustainable development.

Thus, policies set forth by public bodies should be integral and global, but applied locally.

We want to “put an end to poverty in all of its forms across the globe”.

For this I plan to find as many superheroes as possible who are willing to use their powers in this difficult mission. Will you help me find them? Do you want to be one of them?
