The World Health Organization (WHO) launched the 2020 Year of the Nurse and the Midwife campaign to celebrate the world’s 22 million nurses and 2 million midwives who make up half of the global health workforce. This year 2020 is dedicated to showcase the critical contribution of nurses and midwives to health care. Along with WHO, International Council of Nurses (ICN), International Confederation of Midwives, Nursing Now, and the United Nations Population Fund have partnered in running the campaign.

United Nations emphasize that the agency would use 2020 to advocate for greater investment in these professions. Key areas for investment include employing more specialist nurses, making midwives and nurses central to primary health care, and supporting them in u and disease prevention. This challenge, aims to work with healthcare employers worldwide, who between them will enable 20,000 young nurses and midwives to join leadership and development Programmes and build their skills as practitioners, advocates and influential leaders in healthcare. It is aimed that building global leadership of this most important workforce will be crucially important to achieve the objective of sustainable development goals and universal health coverage by 2030.
