Call for new and improved approaches to financing for health promotion and health equity
At the 2018 annual meeting of EuroHealthNet’s General Council, which included a public seminar ‘Smart investments? Let’s talk prevention’, members agreed on a Statement. It stresses the need for transformative approaches in funding and systems to improve public health and wellbeing, reduce inequalities and build sustainable societies.
EuroHealthNet reiterates its concern that prioritisation and direct funding for health promotion and social equity remain insufficient and lack ambition to successfully achieve all health and sustainable development goals and objectives set globally, in the EU, and at national and regional levels.
