WHO Country Office in Romania at the SuperHero School: promoting health as every child’s superpower

6 September 2025
Bucharest, Romania

The WHO Country Office in Romania will participate in the annual SuperHero School event, designed to promote health screening and create awareness of healthy behaviours among families and children at the start of the new school year.

The Country Office will connect with children and their parents via interactive and engaging activities on key health topics such as oral health, healthy eating habits and routine childhood vaccination, and will provide practical guidance and resources to support children’s well-being.

Combining learning with fun, the event encourages children to activate their superpowers of courage, creativity, friendship and energy through workshops, music, painting and other hands-on activities.

Preventive health: empowering children and families

Preventive health measures, including vaccination and oral hygiene, are essential for a safe and healthy start of the school year. WHO’s participation highlights the importance of community engagement, health promotion and accessible expert advice for families. By partnering with the festival and local stakeholders, WHO reaffirms its commitment to empowering children and families in Romania to make healthy choices and protect their well-being.
