Behind every health system are the people who keep it running—and their mental health is increasingly under strain. This session shines a spotlight on the well-being of Europe’s health workforce, revealing the urgent challenges faced by those who care for others every day.

Drawing on findings from the landmark Mental Health of Nurses and Doctors (MeND) survey, this webinar will explore the scale and impact of mental health issues among health professionals across Europe. It will also examine what needs to change—highlighting practical policy solutions, system-level actions, and the importance of supportive working environments.

By connecting research, policy, and lived experience, this session underscores a critical message: protecting the mental health of health workers is essential to building resilient, sustainable health systems. Join us to better understand the challenges—and be part of the conversation on how to address them.
