European Health Forum Gastein (EHFG)
Over the past decade the European Health Forum Gastein has developed into an indispensable institution in the scope of European health policy. It has made a decisive contribution to the development of guidelines and above all the cross-border exchange of experience, information and cooperation. The annual European Health Forum Gastein conferenceis a platform for discussion, information exchange and networking by including leading country- and EU-level representatives from the areas of health policy, administration, science, business and patient organisations.
The European Health Forum Gastein is the most important health-related event in the European Union and a meeting point for experts from different fields within the health system. In doing so the EHFG is taking part in the way in which the Commission launches legislative initiatives, with standardised inter-services consultation procedures, new comitology rules, and dialogue with civil society and experts.
The 2018 EHFG theme "Health and Sustainable Development Bold political choices for Agenda 2030"
The 21st edition of the European Health Forum Gastein, an event on the Austria EU presidency calendar, concluded on the 5th of October with 600 leading health policy experts agreeing on the need to make bold political choices for health system sustainability in Europe. Experts acknowledged the necessity to avoid reversing the strides achieved in improving health and well-being in Europe, and raised concerns about the possible impact of the 2019 European elections on the European health agenda.
“Health and Sustainable Development – bold political choices for Agenda 2030” was the broad theme that set the scene for forward-looking and solution-oriented discussions involving the European Commission, civil society representatives, key opinion leaders from the academic world, and private sector stakeholders from the pharmaceutical industry and beyond.
European Health Leadership Award
The new European Leadership Award will recognise the achievements of individuals and organisations that display exceptional leadership to safeguard or improve the health of people in Europe. It is our way of thanking them for what they do and enabling them to become an inspiration for others.
Young Forum Gastein
