With the new year around the corner we're closing our 50th anniversary asking everyone to look forward and consider: where might #selfcare be in the next 50 years? @DrCDuggan, @JNJNews Manoj Raghunandanan, @IAPOvoice Kawaldip Sehmi, @scottmmelville @heiko_schipper @AlanMain4

During #COVID19 we’ve seen how self-monitoring and an open flow of data are key to safeguarding public health. In the future this combination could generate predictive data that would allow nations to allocate resources for targeted early intervention.

The future has many ambitious targets, like #UHC and #SDGs that require new levels of cooperation to achieve. Given the importance of healthcare to these wider goals, it’s great to have people like Dr Hubert Cranz advocate for how self-care can strengthen #healthpolicy.

Everyone has learnt the importance of reaching out and making the most of restrictions, and we’re no exception. That’s why @AlanMain4 and @heiko_schipper capped off the handover of GSCF Chair with a virtual handshake.

As an institution focused on leadership and driving transformation in Africa, ALU has been inspired by the actions of young people across the continent, who have taken the bold steps necessary to drive forward conversations relating to civil rights and good governance.

People have been using mobiles to monitor their health for years, but the outbreak has really put #selfcare front of mind. And being able to use this #healthdata could revolutionise the future of how we manage #publichealth.

Celebrating #GSCF50 is a good time to take stock of what #selfcare means to each of us. For @scottmmelville it’s all about consumer agency and autonomy.

Going #digital is one of the leading trends shaping the future of self-care. However during #COVID19 we’ve seen that many still struggle to access online services and addressing this will be key to improving care moving forward.

In the face of #COVID19, all of us need access to essential medicines and vaccines, especially those in developing countries. We support #SouthAfrica & #India’s campaign for the @WTO to waive certain #TRIPS provisions. Statement: theelders.org/news/elders-ca…

Thank you my friend 💛🧡❤️ This means so much to me coming from you. #ForPeopleForPlanet @SDGAdvocates

Formed in 1988, the Global Polio Eradication Initiative #GPEI has dedicated itself to the eradication of polio, drastically reducing the risk of children catching the virus today. Ahead of #WorldPolioDay we’re sharing facts about polio vaccination and what’s been achieved so far.

The pandemic has been a huge accelerator for online technologies. Now our approach to #healthdata could see self-care that’s individually tailored to our consumer’s preferences. #GSCF50

For 50 years, the self care industry’s global federation, @Selfcarefed_org, has helped empower consumers to get well and stay well. GSCF’s board leadership is in extremely good hands. Thank you @AlanMain4 and @heiko_schipper

How has self-care defined its destiny as a force for good in society? @AlanMain4 and @heiko_schipper look back at the last 50 years to see what the future has in store. #GSCF50

We can never be sure what the future holds, but we can already see which trends will shape the next 50 years of #selfcare. From #digitalhealth to #UHC we’re moving towards more accessible #healthcare for all.
