This discussion paper recognizes that the Glasgow Consensus Statement is not optimally useful unless it is disseminated widely. Knowledge and use of the consensus statement and its call for centering humanism in healthcare extend to medical and health organizations and groups beyond the International Conference on Communication in Healthcare and Patient Education and Counseling audiences, to professionals and leaders in countries where English is not dominant, to community health advocacy organizations and patients, and the broader world audience.
