WSMI Becomes The Global Self-Care Federation To Reflect New Leading Role

As of today, the World Self-Medication Industry (WSMI) will be known as the Global Self-Care Federation. The change of name reflects a fundamental shift in WSMI’s approach, re-positioning it as a more outward-looking organization, with a more active role in shaping the future of self-care.

“The pace of change in the self-care industry is unprecedented,” says Alan Main, Chairman of the Global Self-Care Federation and Executive Vice President, Sanofi Consumer Healthcare. “If we are to harness the power of the consumer in improving health outcomes around the world, our industry needs an organization that is forward-looking and positioned to shape the global health agenda.”

The Global Self-Care Federation recently completed a strategic review of the Future of Self Care that culminated in the creation of a bold, new agenda for the association.
