With increasing awareness about health, fitness and changing lifestyle, the demand for AYUSH Systems, especially Ayurveda & Yoga has increased tremendously at the international level. The United Nations declaration of 21st June as International Day of Yoga marks the relevance and significance of Ayush systems as an important intervention for ensuring the well-being of the entire global community. Ayurveda is recognized as a System of Medicine in Nepal, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Bangladesh, UAE, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Malaysia, Mauritius, Hungary, Serbia, Tanzania, Switzerland, Cuba and Brazil.

Sowa Rigpa system is recognized in Bhutan and Mongolia. The homoeopathy system is recognized in Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Oman, UAE, Russia and Tanzania. It is well regulated in Ghana, Chile, Colombia, Romania, Turkey, Ontario (Canada) and is integrated into National Health Policy in the UK. Ayush products are being exported to more than 100 foreign countries either as Medicine or as Food supplements.

 

The Ministry of Ayush undertakes various initiatives for international promotion, propagation & global acceptability of Ayush systems such as Bilateral & Multilateral negotiations with different countries to undertake various steps for trade facilitation, recognition to Ayush System, establishing a dedicated AYUSH Export Promotion Council (AEPC) to promote export of Ayush products/ Medicines/Services, support to Industry & Hospitals for participation in International Exhibitions, deputation of experts to various countries establishing quality standards by collaborating with International Agencies like WHO, ISO etc., encouraging outbound investment, establishing International Ayush Institutes, offering a scholarship to foreign nationals for pursuing Ayush courses in India etc.

A total of 12 National Institutes of different Ayush streams are already functioning at different locations. In addition, the following 04 satellite/ constituent institutions of these National Institutes are being established:
