Children’s Health

Children’s health refers to the physical, mental, and social well-being of individuals from infancy through adolescence. It encompasses a range of factors that influence the growth and development of children, including nutrition, immunizations, access to healthcare, physical activity, and emotional support. Children’s health is critical during these formative years as it affects their overall development, educational outcomes, and lifelong health behaviors. It also involves the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of illnesses and conditions specific to children, as well as addressing issues like childhood obesity, mental health disorders, and chronic diseases. Promoting children’s health requires collaborative efforts from families, healthcare providers, schools, and communities to ensure that children have the opportunity to grow up healthy and achieve their full potential.
