As part of the Healthy Humanity Initiative, FII Institute’s program designed to make prevention accessible to all, the Future Investment Initiative (FII) Institute today launched the Blueprint for Healthy Humanity, a global movement to embed prevention and wellbeing at the core of health systems worldwide. The Institute is mobilising a broad coalition across government, business, insurers, civil society, and NGOs to translate commitment into policy and investment. The Blueprint calls on countries and corporations to deliver free preventive check-ups every two years for all citizens, enabled by shared public–private funding and evidence-based policy that improves outcomes while reducing long-term costs. By 2040, 1.5 billion people will be over 65, yet the average person spends nine years in poor health. With an estimated 75% of healthcare costs driven by preventable conditions, prevention is both a moral duty and an economic imperative. Every USD 1 invested in prevention can generate up to USD 6 in economic benefit, strengthening productivity, resilience, and inclusive prosperity. What the Blueprint Delivers A practical, measurable roadmap anchored in four pillars: Prevention — tackling the 70–80% of chronic disease linked to lifestyle rather than genetics. Screening & Diagnostics — scaling early detection through AI, digital health, and equitable access to tests. Health Management — lifelong support for physical and mental wellbeing, from primary care to healthy aging. Education & Upskilling — empowering citizens and training health workforces to put prevention first. “Prevention and wellbeing are issues very close to my heart. Health lies at the heart of prosperity, and we want to make preventive care a right, not a privilege. Together with our partners, we can close the nine-year poor-health gap and build a healthier, more productive world,” said Richard Attias, Chairman of the Executive Committee & Acting CEO of FII Institute. Policy First, Investment Ready Through the Healthy Humanity Initiative, FII Institute will convene ministers, regulators, payers, and innovators to enhance healthcare policy, from reimbursement and incentives to data standards and outcomes tracking, while positioning global leaders at the heart of change to accelerate pilots, scale what works, and attract capital into prevention-led models that deliver real-world impact. Join the Movement The Blueprint for Healthy Humanity is an open invitation to governments, employers, payers, philanthropies, and innovators to align behind shared metrics and actionable commitments. Join the movement to co-design policies, fund national prevention pathways, and pilot solutions that make healthy lifespans a universal reality.
