We welcome the City of Turin, Italy, as the newest community to receive endorsement through the PHPCI Compassionate Communities Program. Turin’s initiative is supported by strong partnerships across the city between local government, community development organizations and schools. Bravo!
We welcome Compassionate Communities Singapore as the newest official endorsement from PHPCI. With its highly integrated systems & its unique scale as a city-state, Singapore is one of the few places in the world capable of implementing a Compassionate City/Compassionate Community model nationwide.
Across the globe, communities are embracing a public health approach to palliative care — recognizing that caring for one another through serious illness, caregiving, death, & grief is not just the work of professionals, but a shared social responsibility. Learn more at:

November 1st is World Compassionate Communities Day!
PHPCI honors & supports this movement through its Compassionate Communities & Cities Endorsement Process. Endorsed communities are recognized internationally for their leadership, innovation, and heart-centered action. More details in comments.
Each area presented their compassionate communities programme to a panel made up of members from PHPCI sharing how they started, their activities, resident engagement, impact & next steps. The three areas were able to demonstrate how they understood PHPC & in particular compassionate communities.
We are happy to share that The South West Compassionate Communities Network in Australia, Oasis of Hope in Kericho County, Kenya and Getxo Zureki in Spain became the first three areas to be endorsed as Compassionate Communities via the new scheme from PHPCI. More details in comments.
