World skin health coalition
The World Skin Health Coalition unites to address the global challenges of dermatological conditions and diseases.
With over 2 billion people affected, we advocate for better access, care, and recognition of skin health’s true impact. Join us in elevating skin health on the global health agenda.
The Coalition is a patient-led, multi-stakeholder group of like-minded organizations united under a shared vision: to improve health outcomes for everyone who is affected by dermatological diseases/conditions globally.
With an estimated 4.86 billion reported cases of skin and subcutaneous diseases globally (2021), conditions and diseases of the skin are one of the most common reasons that people seek help from a health worker
Join the Movement
Through major global initiatives, the Coalition is driving change and working towards reshaping how the world views skin diseases and conditions.
Our #NotJustMySkin Awareness campaign in 2024 made one thing clear: people around the world demand action for those impacted by skin conditions and diseases.
The #SkinDiseasesResolution campaign is continuing efforts towards a WHA Resolution calling on the WHO to develop a Global Action Plan for All Skin Diseases.
