Description: | As policymakers seek to innovate and transform their health systems to address pressing challenges, what is the role of Primary Health Care (PHC) and PHC reforms in strengthening health systems resilience? How could integrating the notion of resilience in health reforms, by focusing especially on PHC, help ensure more future-proof health systems?
This webinar will highlight the key role of PHC as a cornerstone of health system resilience and explore how strengthening PHC, through timely and innovative reforms, bolsters health systems resilience. Moreover, it will highlight European success stories whereby structural PHC reforms supported by the EU’s Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF), are contributing to health systems resilience and investing in a future-oriented approach towards improved delivery of care.

Description: | The ever-changing world brings us not only challenges but also opportunities to work better, to live better. Scientific research lets us better understand the interconnectedness of the human body and mind, lifting the stigma of mental health problems and calling for deeper involvement of all health care professionals into the management of mental health challenges.
Physiotherapy is not an exclusion in this situation. On the contrary - physiotherapists are in the perfect place: all the skills, knowledge and tools are already there. This webinar will include short presentations focusing on competencies and tools every physiotherapist should already have and the impact that putting these resources in action can have. |

Description: | The incidence of (multiple) chronic conditions is rising and has significant societal and economic implications. It is linked to lower quality of life, higher healthcare utilization and health inequalities. Integrated care provides a shift from a reactive approach to a proactive approach focused on prevention and integration between healthcare and social care.
This interactive lunchtime webinar launches a Policy Brief on implementing integrated care and features examples from Germany, Denmark and the Netherlands. Join us to find out how we can overcome the barriers to integrated care created by separate funding, regulation and delivery systems for social care and healthcare. |
