World Council for Health (WCH) welcomes the appointment of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS).
RFK Jr.’s decades-long commitment to health, environmental activism, and standing up for the rights of individuals, including free speech, aligns with our mission to promote health and well-being on individual, community and societal levels.
His dedication to addressing critical health challenges such as chronic disease and harms caused by pharmaceutical, agricultural and environmental products, challenging conflicts of interest, holding powerful entities accountable, and advocating for informed decision-making heralds a new chapter in U.S. health—one that prioritizes transparency, empowerment, and a focus on people-centric care.
World Council for Health Steering Committee team stated, “It is momentous that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was appointed to such an important role on behalf of the American people. His longstanding advocacy for product safety, environmental health, and transparency in government policy aligns with the values of the World Council for Health. We believe he will help to bring robust inquiry and integrity to the conversations that shape health policy.”
World Council for Health looks forward to the positive changes that his service-based leadership promise to bring to health, freedom and sovereignty, and to working with him and allies in the US and around the world for a healthier, happier and peaceful world.
