World Population Day on July 11 is a holiday that's dedicated to focusing on the importance of population issues. The day was established by the United Nations as a result of the massive interest people had in Five Billion Day in 1987.
INTRODUCTION
World Population Day is observed every
year on July 11 to raise awareness about
global population issues. Overpopulation
has become a major concern as global
resources are being used up at an
unsustainable rate.
WORLD POPULATION DAY HISTORY
The world population statistics
reached 5 billion on July 11, 1987.
World Population Day was
subsequently created in 1989 by the
Governing Council of the United
Nations Development Program.
In December 1990, the United
Nations General Assembly
recognized the day by adopting
resolution 45/26, which sought to
raise awareness of the population's
growth as well as related issues,
such as equality, fundamental
rights, poverty, development, and
the environment.
WORLD POPULATION DAY SIGNIFICANCE
Additionally, the need to guarantee that
people have access to family planning,
gender equality, and maternal health care is
equally important.
The aim of this day is to raise awareness of
all the negative impacts that population
growth has had on the steady development
of nature.

DEFINITION-FAMILY PLANNING
It is the blue print of the care that the nurse
designs to systematically minimize or
eliminate the identified health and nursing
problem through explicitly formulated
outcomes of care (goals and objectives) and
deliberately chosen set of interventions,
resources and evaluation criteria, standards,
methods and tools.
CONCEPT OF PLANNING AS A PROCESS:
The nursing care plan focuses on actions, which are designed to
solve or minimize existing problem.
The cores of the plan are the approaches, strategies, activities,
methods and materials, which the nurse hopes, will improve the
problem.
The nursing care plan is a product of the liberate systematic
process.
The nursing care plan as with all other plans relate to the future.
It utilizes events in the past and what is happening in the present to
determine patterns. It also projects the future scenario if the
situation is not corrected.
The nursing care plan is based upon identified health and
nursing problems.
The nursing care plan is a means to an end, not an end in itself.
The goal in planning is to deliver the most appropriate care to the
client by eliminating barriers to the family health development.
