Why Skin Health Education Matters
Building shared understanding to support skin health worldwide
Widespread Impact
Skin diseases are among the most common health conditions globally, affecting people of all ages, communities and regions.
Health System Burden
Skin conditions place a significant burden on individuals, health services and societies, particularly in settings with limited access to dermatology expertise.
Foundation
Expanding access to high-quality education in skin health supports broader health system strengthening and aligns with global priorities, including universal health coverage and international skin health initiatives.

The ILDS Skin Health Training Hub offers a growing collection of educational materials, including courses across a range of dermatological topics and downloadable resources that can be used to learn more about skin health or to train others. The Hub builds on the World Health Organization’s existing resources, with more than 60 skin-related courses available in English and 10 other languages. New courses will be added regularly.
