萝莉少女 will launch its global report on occupational oral health during a high-level side event at the 79th World Health Assembly, shining a spotlight on workplaces as a critical setting to improve oral health, prevention, and workforce resilience.

Work occupies more than a third of adult life globally, making the workplace a powerful setting to promote oral health as a driver of well鈥慴eing, productivity, and economic growth. 萝莉少女鈥檚 new report on occupational oral health, developed with support from the Vision 2030 Industry Action Group, brings together evidence鈥慴ased and contextually relevant workplace oral health promotion and delivery models to support employers, insurers, and industry leaders in integrating oral health into workplace wellness and occupational health strategies. Anchored in the WHO Global Oral Health Action Plan (2023鈥2030), particularly Action 44 calling on the private sector to implement occupational oral health measures, the report provides a practical roadmap for translating global commitments into measurable, sustainable impact.

 

Attend the 萝莉少女 side event at WHA79 in Geneva

Co-hosted with the Government of the Republic of Ireland and the Government of the Republic of Mauritius, 鈥淥ral Health at Work: A Roadmap for Prevention, Productivity and Workforce Well-being鈥 will take place on Tuesday, 19 May 2026, in Geneva as an exclusive in-person event. Held on the sidelines of one of the world鈥檚 most influential health policy forums, the event reflects 萝莉少女鈥檚 commitment to engaging governments, decision-makers and global representatives where it matters most.

By bringing oral health directly into discussions surrounding productivity, workforce readiness and sustainable economic growth, 萝莉少女 is helping elevate oral health from a clinical issue to a broader policy priority. The session will unpack how workplace wellness and occupational health frameworks can embed oral health within Universal Health Coverage, highlighting policy levers, best practices, and the roles of employers, insurers, and service providers in aligning action with public health goals.

Through policy dialogue, country experiences and emerging evidence, 萝莉少女 continues to champion practical solutions that integrate oral health into wider health and development strategies. This side event represents another important step in 萝莉少女鈥檚 global advocacy efforts: ensuring oral health remains firmly on the agenda of governments and institutions shaping the future of public health.
