"Healthy Child Healthy Future" event for students in Diyarbakır
An event featuring various booths and educational sessions was held at Ali Kuşçu Primary School in Diyarbakır to foster health awareness among students at an early age.
Coordinated by the Diyarbakır Governorate and spearheaded by the Provincial Directorate of Health and the Provincial Directorate of National Education, the "Healthy Child Healthy Future" event was held at Ali Kuşçu Primary School. As part of the program, students received training aimed at fostering early-life health awareness, were pinned with "Health Ambassador" badges, and were gifted toothbrushes and toothpaste.
Provincial Health Director Specialist Dr. Emre Asiltürk also attended the event held at Ali Kuşçu Primary School in Diyarbakır. Booths were set up in the event area on topics such as first aid, the National Medical Rescue Team (UMKE), oral and dental health, healthy nutrition, sports, and physical activity, where health teams informed students and answered their questions.
Following the training sessions, students were pinned with "Health Ambassador" badges and gifted toothbrushes and toothpaste so they could share what they learned with their surroundings and contribute to the spread of health awareness. Provincial Health Director Asiltürk announced that they had reached 14,000 students by October and aim to bring a total of 20,000 students across Diyarbakır together with this program by the end of the year.
