SELF-CARE IS HEALTHCARE

“The ability of individuals, families and communities to promote health, prevent
disease, maintain health, and cope with illness and disability with or without
the support of a health-care provider”.

– The World Health Organization


As health systems worldwide face a range of challenges, evidence-based self-care
offers a promising path toward sustainable healthcare and ensuring health and
well-being for all. By promoting prevention, empowerment, health literacy, and
cost-effective health management, self-care complements existing healthcare
delivery systems. Integrating self-care into our health systems can lead to
healthier populations and optimised healthcare resource use.

However, access to evidence-based self-care interventions remains unequal across
the globe. This International Self-Care Month (and Day), our campaign celebrates
the value and potential of self-care while calling for urgent action from
policymakers. We urge them to embrace self-care as a vital component of
healthcare by fully embedding it in national health systems and policies.

It is time to act on the evidence: self-care is healthcare.
