HRP and the World Health Organization are celebrating #SelfCareMonth, which starts today and ends on International Self-Care Day, which is 24 July. That date was chosen because self-care can be practiced 24 hours a day, seven days a week.   Self-Care helps people: •promote their health  •maintain their health  •prevent disease  • manage illness This Self-Care Month marks the fifth anniversary of WHO releasing the first global Guideline on self-care interventions for health and well-being. Since then, around 50 countries so far have taken steps to adapt the Guideline for use nationally and introduce or change policies to support self-care and the use of self-care interventions.  Find out more about Self-Care and WHO’s work in this area here.
