Empowering Sustainable Self-Care in Europe
Because staying healthy as a society starts with each of us, our mission at AESGP is to support everyone’s access to safe, effective and sustainable self-care in Europe, empowering people to take better care of their own and their families’ health.
The Voice of the European Self-Care Industry
AESGP, the Association of the European Self-Care Industry, is the recognised voice of manufacturers of non-prescription medicines, food supplements, and self-care medical devices in Europe, an area also referred to as “self-care” or “consumer healthcare” products.
For more than 60 years, we have worked on behalf of our members to strengthen understanding of, and access to, safe and effective self‑care products and services across Europe.
Our mission
Our mission is to establish responsible self‑care as an integral part of health promotion and disease prevention in Europe.
Self‑care empowers and engages each of us in our health and well-being. It is an integral part of the healthcare system. It complements professional healthcare and helps reduce pressure on healthcare systems, making them more cost‑effective, resilient and sustainable, while ensuring they are there when people need them most.
