The Australian Pharmacy Council (APC) proudly celebrates World Pharmacists Day 2025, recognising the essential role pharmacists play in delivering safe, accessible, and high-quality healthcare across Australia.
This year’s theme, “Think Health, Think Pharmacist,” highlights the profession’s growing scope and its central role in supporting community health.
In a time when the world can feel uncertain, pharmacists remain a trusted and reliable source of safe, accurate healthcare advice. Their accessibility and expertise make them a cornerstone of Australia’s healthcare system. When medicines are the most commonly used intervention in healthcare, pharmacists play a vital role in helping people understand their medicines, take them correctly, and receive ongoing support.
As the national accrediting authority for pharmacy education and assessment, APC is proud to ensure the safety of the public. Our accreditation standards and processes equip graduates and practising pharmacists with the knowledge, skills and professional standards required to practise safely and effectively.
APC is committed to supporting the advancement of the workforce and collaborating across all sectors of the profession to address challenges.
Whether managing chronic conditions in community pharmacies, educating future pharmacists, or contributing to national registration assessments, pharmacists make a meaningful impact every day.
We have over 10 pharmacists working within our APC staff, plus more than 50 who contribute from their other roles in the sector. The APC acknowledges the dedication and professionalism of pharmacists across the country and around the world. We thank them for their continued commitment to public health and safety.

Happy World Pharmacists Day!
