EVERY DAY A VOICE (Phyland, 2026)
Every day is a voice day…
for work and for art,
for speaking, singing
and being heard.
On April 16, we listen wider: to the bright, the fragile, the fierce, the different
a chorus of colours crossing oceans,
each voice carrying a world.
We tend them like living instruments:
kept supple, not strained,
used with care, not worn thin.
We speak to connect, not to divide,
to reach, not to drown out
and we remember, with quiet gratitude,
that our voices can also be our votes.

| Details of your World Voice Day Event | In honor of World Voice Day on April 16, this content sheds light on mutational falsetto—a common yet underdiagnosed vocal disorder in adolescent boys that leaves many with persistent high-pitched, childlike voices, causing both phonatory difficulties and significant psychological distress during puberty. Medical professionals from Fujian Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Fuzhou University share practical, expert guidance to help boys navigate this condition, protect their vocal health, and ease related emotional burdens. Produced by reporter Pan Wenxiang, edited by Liu Xiaofang, with video materials provided by Fujian Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Fuzhou University, the piece emphasizes the importance of timely attention to adolescent vocal health and its impact on mental well-being |
