We look back at another successful European Public Health Week. There were 235 events, in 21 different languages and organised within 32 different countries. Five kick-off events were organised by EUPHA and daily partners: Association of Schools of Public Health in the European Region (ASPHER), European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC), the Health and Environment Alliance (HEAL) and ENBEL, GAMIAN Europe and the European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies.
The span of the events was very broad: webinars, lectures, first aid courses in the city centre, physical outdoor activities, networking session, radio interviews, publications and digital displays to mention some. There’s many ways to share knowledge and bring together public health professionals and those interested in health. What all events had in common during the EUPHW, was the motive to organise an event: improving health throughout the life course of all people living in Europe.
Our president Iveta Nagyova said: “The European Public Health Week is an action-based event where we can showcase the strength and width of public health, provide visibility for our national public heath associations, public health workforce in general, and to educate the general population on health priorities.” We are very impressed with the high numbers of events that have been organised and the commitment of all stakeholders, members and friends to be active during the week. We have received tremendous support from the WHO Regional Office for Europe, from the European Commission and all of our daily partners.
We are grateful to work with such dedicated public health professionals!
