WHO Executive Board Statements
The World Health Organization Executive Board (WHO EB) puts into practice the policies and decisions made at the World Health Assembly (WHA), WHO’s decision-making body. During the annual WHO EB meeting in January, EB members agree upon the agenda and the resolutions to be considered at the upcoming WHA.
FDI delivers statements at the annual WHO EB meeting, prepared together with the Vision 2020 Task Team, to push for oral health to be considered within certain agenda items. This is important because it raises the profile of oral health on the global health agenda and works toward establishing commitments and global policies on oral health.
