MOH Mass Sport Activity and Universal Health Coverage Day Celebration
Mathiwos Wondu-YeEthiopia Cancer Society proudly participated in the mass sports activity held on December 15, 2024, in celebration of the Universal Health Coverage (UHC) Week. The event, themed “A Healthy Lifestyle for the Health of Society,” featured a 2 km walk from the Ministry of Health to Adwa Square, along with various fun and engaging group sports activities.

Her Excellency Adanech Abebe, Mayor of Addis Ababa, and Her Excellency Dr. Mekdes Daba, Minister of Health, delivered inspiring speeches highlighting the importance of exercise for maintaining health, fostering peace, and promoting unity. They pledged to ensure the continuation of this initiative on a monthly basis to ensure the wellbeing of our community.

We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to the Ministry of Health, the Addis Ababa Mayor’s Office, and CCRDA for making this event possible. As exercise is a cost-free way to promote health, prevent disease, and prolong life, we invite our beneficiaries, partners, and networks to engage in similar mass sports activities in their communities.
