Call for proposals to contribute to the organisation of conferences and events

Expected Outcome

The conferences should include high level speakers, and a representative number of participants from all relevant fields of the challenges to be discussed.

The action will support communication activities addressed to the general public and/or to specific groups of people or health professionals, in order to promote the European Health Union and its different initiatives.

Conferences must have a Union-wide dimension. The conferences will not focus on a specific condition or disease however, they will focus on current cross-cutting Union policy issues.

Objective

The objective of this action is to support the organisation of not-for-profit, Union-wide highlevel science-policy-society conferences that bring together all interested parties such as citizens, patients, practitioners, scientists, policy makers from local, regional, and Union level. The conferences will cover important health topics that are related to the Union’s health priorities, and thereby contribute to the development and implementation of the European Health Union.

Scope

These conferences are an opportunity for discussion on how to work better together at Union level on one or more health-related topics and will allow Member States, third countries associated to the EU4Health Programme and relevant stakeholders to exchange information and good practices on relevant topics in the field of public health.

Grants may be awarded to support the organisation of conferences that correspond to the objectives and the priorities of the EU4Health Programme, and which have a Union-wide dimension.
