Future-proof health systems: Fostering transformation, performance, and resilience

24 January 2024 11:00 – 12:00 CET


Webinar I in the series: Public debate on the future health priorities of the European Union

11:00-12:00 CET, Wednesday 24 January 2024

As we approach the 2024 European Parliament elections and the subsequent formation of a new European Commission, what should be the European Union's health priorities? Do we build on the achievements of the past few years, do we maintain the status quo, or even reconsider certain measures?

Recognizing the need for an informed debate, the European Commission's Directorate General for Health and Food Safety (DG SANTE) has tasked the European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies with organising a public debate.

This debate is designed to engage different audiences and give voice to policy makers and different stakeholders. Nine themes have been identified and outlined to guide the discussion. Following events held at various conferences, the Observatory is now facilitating webinars to delve deeper into each of these themes and engage in comprehensive discussions.

The first webinar of the series will deal with the following three themes:

  • Supporting health system transformation 
  • Implementing digital solutions
  • Improving the performance and resilience of health systems

This will be a highly interactive format, to allow for debate, comments and suggestions.

Speakers and facilitators include:

  • Maya Mathews, European Commission
  • Nicole Mauer, European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies
  • Matthias Wismar, European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies

With a welcome message from Sandra Gallina, Director-General for Health and Food Safety (DG SANTE), European Commission

Two more webinars will follow in due course, for which you can register here and here.

Please find briefing papers on all themes.
