The overarching theme for EUPHW 2026 is investing for sustainable health and well-being
One week. One shared focus. Hundreds of actions across Europe.
European Public Health Week (EUPHW) is the moment when we bring the spirit and commitments of the European Public Health Conference statement to life across Europe, transforming the statement made at EPH into concrete dialogue, local action and shared mobilisation.
EUPHW is an annual initiative led by EUPHA to shine a spotlight on public health. Each year, hundreds of organizations and thousands of individuals across Europe come together to host activities, share knowledge, and raise awareness of important public health challenges and solutions, promote collaboration and drive action on the most pressing health challenges..
EUPHW is open to everyone: from national health institutes and universities, to local communities, schools, and civil society groups. The week offers a unique opportunity to exchange experiences, inspire action, and highlight the value of public health to our societies.
Each year, more countries join the EUPHW, with 20+ European countries actively participating in 2025.
In 2025, 298 events took place during the EUPHW. 183 events where held in-person and 115 events where hybrid or online.
Every year, the initiatives under the European Public Health Week reach thousands of professionals, students and citizens througout Europe.
