Embracing the principles of responsible self-care, I fully endorse the leading role of AESGP in supporting access to safe, effective and sustainable self-care, and empowering people to take charge of their own health, making informed decisions that lead to better outcomes for themselves and their families. As a member of the Parliamentary Committee for the Environment, Public health and Food Safety, I support that responsible self-care should be an integral part of a comprehensive health strategy promotion and disease prevention in Europe, and I believe it is essential for creating a sustainable and resilient health system. The commitment of the European Federation AESGP to advancing self-care is truly commendable, as it plays a crucial role in guiding us towards a healthier future.
