High Level Meeting: Challenges in cancer care
2023-08-31 08:30 - 15:30 (Europe/Brussels) | Palacio Real de Pedralbes (Sala Grande), Av. Diagonal, 686, Barcelona, Catalonia, 08034, Spain
Cancer continues to be one of the leading causes of morbi-mortality in the world. Thedata shows the enormous impact of cancer for the people who suffer from it and for the health systems, motivating the development of different action plans to fight against cancer and a greater political commitment to its prevention and control.
In recent years we have been participating in the strategies that have been promoted at the European Union level with the aim of tackling cancer from different aspects.
In 2021, the European Plan to Fight Cancer was approved, the purpose of which is to address the disease in a comprehensive manner that guarantees quality care carried out by multidisciplinary teams.
This high-level meeting aims to reflect and discuss with national and international experts on the current challenges and opportunities in cancer care at the European level.
Throughout the Conference, the advances made in terms of health policies for cancer control will be updated, both at the level of the European Commission and the Spanish National Health System through the Cancer Strategy, as well as progress related to the field of research within the framework of Horizon Europe and Cancer Mission. On the other hand, through the format of round tables, the current challenges in relation to the multidisciplinary and quality approach to cancer patients in comprehensive care centers, advances in their treatment, as well as inequities and inequalities in cancer within the EU will be addressed, followed by a space where the audience can interact with the experts, enriching the debate and discussion.

2023-09-05 08:30 - 2023-09-06 17:00 (Europe/Brussels) | Porto, Portugal, Porto, Portugal
Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) in health has sparked public debate on the extent to which technology, and more specifically generative AI, has the potential to infringe upon personal privacy and impact the health of populations. To explore this and other issues impacting current and future European Region health system landscapes, WHO/Europe is hosting the second WHO Symposium on the Future of Digital Health Systems in the European Region on 5–6 September.
To be held in Porto, Portugal, and co-organized with the Portuguese government, the symposium will bring together government representatives, key thought leaders, policy experts, academics, health-care workers, civil society representatives, professional organizations and other partners to help shape actions in support of the “Regional digital health action plan for the WHO European Region 2023–2030” approved at the 72nd session of the WHO Regional Committee for Europe in 2022.

Over the course of the 2 days, participants will have the opportunity to participate in and contribute to the following topics:

Unlocking the potential of digital health to fight noncommunicable diseases;
Digital health for pandemic preparedness 2.0 in the WHO European Region;
Digital technologies and One Health: balancing and optimizing the health of people, animals and the environment;
Using digital solutions for the prevention and control of communicable disease;
From big data to personalized care: how AI and precision medicine is revolutionizing care;
Beyond the walls: how can telehealth revolutionize health care?
Revolutionizing health information systems for data-driven decision-making
Harnessing the power of emerging technologies for better mental health

Personalised Digital Healthcare and the European Health Data Space
2023-09-27 - 2023-09-29 | INCIBE, Avenida José Aguado, 41, León, León, 24005, Spain
It is expected that during the six months of the Spanish Presidency of the Council of the EU the processing will continue, presumably at first reading, of the proposal for the European Health Data Space Regulation. Among other aims, one of the effects of this project will be to promote personalised healthcare, through the provision of face-to-face and virtual services for patients, specifically adapted to their characteristics and health situation.
Personalised medicine will reinforce the efficiency and sustainability of the NHS, as the use of data and its exploitation (AI, big data) offers professionals new tools to help in prevention, diagnosis and treatment.
The application of these digital personalised medicine tools, including genomics, to Primary and Community Care, in an integrated manner with hospital care, is being promoted in Spain, through the regional health services, as in the rest of the EU, by the arrival of MRR funds, through the Plan for the Digital Transformation of Primary and Community Care, endowed with €230 million, and the Plan for Digital Personalised Care, endowed with €130 million.
Both plans will be developed in collaboration with the autonomous communities, offering the possibility of improving care for people through the primary and secondary use of the data that the Regulation will regulate.

A meeting with representatives of the health ministries of some member states, the health departments of the autonomous communities and European institutions, business associations and representatives of the bio-health sector to analyse:

The experience of the primary use of data in healthcare in some European guest countries and the personalised digital care projects of the autonomous communities, as part of the NHS digital health strategy.
The general framework of the European Regulation on the European Health Data Space.
The experience of some European countries in managing the secondary use of health data and the prospects this opens up for the bio-health, pharmaceutical and research sectors.
Challenges for the use of data in terms of ethics, technology and cybersecurity.

The European Public Health (EPH) Conference is an annually organised scientific conference on public health issues in Europe. Each year the conference is organised in a different country by the EPH Conference Foundation in close cooperation with one or more local partner(s). The conference actively seeks a larger partnership with other European NGOs and institutions.
The conference of this year, in Dublin (Ireland), hopes to open up part of this discussion, with a focus on health, and health care. We will look specifically at gender and health, at health care delivery generally, the use of digital tools, and the necessary staffing and skills to provide good care. We will, in line with the overall conference theme, look in depth at the climate emergency, and very specifically at the human food supply.
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine poses serious risks to global food security that will require a range of responses from governments and international organizations. The unfolding crisis in Ukraine will push up already-high food price inflation, and have serious consequences for low-income net-food importing countries, many of which have seen an increase in malnourishment rates over the past few years in the face of pandemic disruptions. The Ukraine conflict not only exposes the evil of the current Russian government, but also our failure to create a resilient sustainable global food supply. We can do better, and we have to do better.
