Today, we join the global pharmacy community in celebrating World Pharmacists Day with this year’s theme: “Pharmacists: Meeting global health needs.”

As global health needs continue to evolve, pharmacists everywhere play a crucial role in improving the wellbeing of our communities. Their expertise goes beyond dispensing medication—they are vital contributors to patient care, public health, and the advancement of healthcare systems.

At the Australian Pharmacy Council (APC), we recognise the importance of empowering pharmacists to meet these evolving needs. As our CEO, Bronwyn Clark, says

"Our work doesn't stop at supporting education and accreditation. We are actively engaged in initiatives that promote cultural safety, innovation in pharmacy practice, and interprofessional collaboration. We believe that by fostering an environment of continuous learning and by upholding the highest standards of practice, we can empower pharmacists to meet the evolving health needs of communities around the world. Happy Pharmacists Day!"

This World Pharmacists Day, we celebrate the incredible work of pharmacists who continually make a difference to the lives of millions.
