We’re excited to announce the 2025 World Family Doctor Day campaign!
🗓️ Celebrated each year on 19 May, this day highlights the vital work of family doctors worldwide. This year’s theme is:
🧠 “𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐚 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝”
We’re taking time to reflect on the role family doctors play in cultivating mental wellness and resilience—in their patients, in their communities, and in themselves.
At the same time, we recognise that the well-being of family doctors is essential to the care they provide. When doctors are supported—mentally, emotionally, and professionally—patients and communities benefit too. Doctor well-being and patient care are not separate priorities; they’re deeply linked.
This year’s campaign is a chance to come together—across countries, cultures, and communities—to celebrate the work we do, care for each other, and keep building something better.
