New Delhi, August 19, 2025 – Eminent health experts have called for the integration of Ayurveda with modern medicine in paediatric healthcare, underscoring how ancient wisdom and contemporary science together can effectively address current and emerging child health challenges. The recommendation came during the 30th national seminar of the Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth (RAV), an autonomous institution under the Ministry of Ayush, focused on “Management of Illness and Wellness in Paediatrics through Ayurveda.”
The event, which brought together leading Ayurveda scholars, researchers, practitioners, and students, sought to advance a holistic approach to paediatric healthcare. Scientific presentations highlighted evidence-based approaches and new research, while interactive dialogues explored preventive and promotive child health strategies.
Union Ayush Minister Prataprao Jadhav, in a written message to attendees, reinforced that Ayurveda has always viewed child health as fundamental to societal well-being. He described the current initiative as a timely effort to emphasize Ayurveda’s comprehensive approach to both the management of illness and the active promotion of wellness among children.
Experts at the seminar agreed that combining Ayurveda’s time-tested practices with scientific validation could not only improve preventive child healthcare but also help shape a resilient and healthier generation. The integration of traditional and modern knowledge, they said, will provide a robust foundation for paediatric healthcare that addresses physical as well as developmental and environmental needs of children.
