For the first time, Ayurveda Day will be observed on a fixed calendar date—23rd September-departing from the earlier practice of aligning the celebration with Dhanvantari Jayanti. The main event being hosted at AIIA, Goa, further underlines the state’s emergence as a global wellness destination.

Highlighting the importance of the occasion, Shri Prataprao Jadhav said:

“Goa provides the perfect global stage for Ayurveda Day. With its international outlook and deep roots in wellness, Goa will amplify this year’s theme - ‘Ayurveda for People & Planet’. We are not just celebrating a tradition; we are taking Ayurveda to the world as a sustainable solution for modern healthcare challenges.”

The 2025 theme-"Ayurveda for People & Planet"-underscores the Government of India’s vision to promote Ayurveda as a sustainable and integrative global healthcare solution, addressing both human health and environmental well-being.

The All India Institute of Ayurveda (AIIA), Goa, a state-of-the-art institute under the Ministry of Ayush, has been chosen as the venue to reflect India's commitment to world-class infrastructure and international collaborations in traditional medicine.

In line with previous years, the Ministry of Ayush has planned nationwide events across all states and union territories, along with a robust global outreach through Indian Missions abroad, international universities, wellness organizations, and diaspora networks. Building on last year’s global participation across 150+ countries, Ayurveda Day 2025 aims to reach even wider international audiences, reaffirming India’s leadership in traditional and holistic health systems.

This year’s celebration also aligns with India's broader diplomatic and cultural outreach, positioning Ayurveda not just as a traditional Indian science but as a vital, evidence-based, and planet-friendly healthcare system for the modern world.
