World Health Organization (WHO) Traditional Medicine Strategy

The WHO Traditional Medicine Strategy aims to support the safe and effective use of traditional medicines—like herbal remedies and natural therapies—integrating them into modern healthcare. It seeks to improve quality, safety, and access by developing standards, research, and regulation, while respecting cultural practices. The goal is to harness the benefits of traditional medicine responsibly, ensuring people can safely incorporate these treatments alongside conventional medicine, ultimately contributing to better health outcomes worldwide.
