The International Association for Hospice and Palliative Care and UNU-IIGH are co-hosting a webinar in celebration of this year's World Hospice and Palliative Care Day.
"By 2060, an estimated 48 million people (47% of all deaths globally) will die with serious health-related suffering, which represents an 87% increase from 26 million people in 2016. 83% of these deaths will occur in low-income and middle-income countries”. Palliative care (PC) addresses serious health-related suffering.
Effective civil society advocacy and official support at all levels of governance are essential to ensure integration of palliative care into health systems per World Health Assembly Resolution 67/19 and the 2018 Declaration of Astana – the guiding global health document.
