WHO, Health Ministry Launch Women's Health Campaign on Delhi Metro
The World Health Organisation and the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare started a special campaign on the Delhi Metro to talk about women's and girls' health.
The campaign runs for a month and shows messages inside metro trains and at stations.
These messages are about keeping women safe, healthy, and happy, and making sure they have access to important services.
The campaign also talks about reducing the gap between people who have access to technology and those who don't, spreading awareness about tuberculosis, and reinforcing laws that protect women.
Important people from the WHO and the Health Ministry were there to start the campaign.
There was also a performance by an all-women band to celebrate the launch.
The campaign will also be on the WHO's digital platforms to reach more people.
The World Health Organisation and the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare launched a month-long campaign on women's and girls' health on the Delhi Metro.
The campaign runs from 10 December 2025 to 10 January 2026 and focuses on women's safety, health, mental well-being, and access to essential services.
Messages about reducing the digital divide, promoting mental health support, spreading TB awareness, and reinforcing the PC&PNDT Act are displayed inside metro coaches and at select stations.
Catharina Boehme (WHO Officer-in-Charge) and Punya Salila Srivastava (Union Health Secretary) flagged off the campaign train themed 'Healthy Women = Healthy Nations, #BcozSheMatters.'
