The CAHO AYUSH Healthcare Forum is a dedicated platform established to integrate quality, safety, and evidence-based practices within the AYUSH (Ayurveda, Yoga & Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha, and Homeopathy) systems of medicine. It brings together practitioners, researchers, educators, administrators, and policymakers who are committed to enhancing the credibility, standards, and patient-centric outcomes of traditional and integrative healthcare.

The forum serves as a catalyst for fostering dialogue, collaboration, and benchmarking between AYUSH and modern healthcare systems, working towards a holistic and safe healing environment. It also drives capacity-building initiatives focused on quality improvement, patient safety, and the advancement of evidence-based practices within traditional medicine systems.
