56.8M people need palliative care each year, most in LMICs. For children, 98% live in LMICs, nearly half in Africa. Barriers remain: absent in health policies, limited training for professionals, poor access to pain relief. Everyone deserves dignity at every stage of life. @WHO

In Europe, more than half of the countries do not teach #palliativecare to future doctors and nurses at university level. Fifteen countries are already leading the way by including palliative care training in all medical schools. @ccentenocortes @unav @Fcurepalliative
