LESSONS FROM THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

We were not prepared to face a pandemic - a hard reality that revealed our weaknesses. All aspects of health, social and economic systems were affected. What went wrong in the COVID-19 pandemic, and what can we learn from it ? Though most of the EU states had initially faced the pandemic on their own, they gradually understood the importance of international collaboration and decided to strengthen European cooperation while making it more efficient. This underlined the need to think health globally.

14.45-15.25
1 - CARING FOR EU CITIZENS AND THEIR ENVIRONMENT

Within prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and vaccines, what is needed to effectively care for Europe’s populations? Which resources in member states and which EU capacities need to be reinforced? From the EU Green Deal to a clear commitment in Health, how to move towards a better environment with better health for all ? How a One Sustainable Health approach helps to reconsider this new paradigm for Health?
