The International Wellness Day is being marked by organizing various programs today.
The United Nations had, at the initiative of Nepal, on March 10, 2026 endorsed a resolution, declaring to observe April 15 each year as International Wellness Day (Aarogya Diwas). "To promote awareness and action for holistic well-being, the General Assembly proclaimed 15 April as International Wellness Day," the UN said.
his Day serves as a platform for education, cultural exchange, and knowledge-sharing — encouraging people everywhere to embrace accessible, inclusive, and affordable wellness practices that enhance both personal and collective health, according to the UN.
The UN noted that the wellness sector plays a growing role in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) — from creating jobs and reducing poverty to promoting inclusive and sustainable economic growth.
Wellness supports quality of life, protects human dignity, and empowers individuals and communities to adopt sustainable lifestyles and safeguard resources for future generations.
