Across all ages and regions, loneliness and social isolation have serious impacts on our physical and mental health, and the well-being of our communities and society. The WHO Commission on Social Connection (2024–2026) aims to see the issue recognised and resourced as a global public health priority. The Commission will propose a global agenda on social connection, working with high-level Commissioners to make the case for action, marshal support to scale up proven solutions and measure progress. Start your journey to learn more about the issue by watching the Social Connection Series: a living collection of short films that features the lived experiences of people around the world on social connection. Sit down with us to listen to their stories and explore why social connection is central to our health, well-being, and to being human.
