Semester 2019: Social sustainability and economic progress – It’s time for a new narrative

This EuroHealthNet report assesses the 2019 European Semester, the EU’s annual cycle of economic and social policy coordination, from a health equity perspective.

There continue to be big differences in health outcomes between groups of people and between countries in the European Union. To address these inequalities and to improve health for all, we need a new narrative on economic and fiscal policy. A process-focused, holistic approach is now needed, one which incorporates social sustainability and health equity.
