17th to 21st May, 2021, online.
The European Public Health Week (EUPHW) aims to:
- Make the case for public health and a more inclusive society across Europe
- Raise awareness and amplify existing messages on five specific public health themes, in line with key organisations at European level
- Create trust and innovative ways of collaboration among all professionals contributing to public health at local, national, regional and European level.
The themes for the 2021 edition are:
- Monday 17 May: Communicating science and health
Conveying accurate and accessible messages is crucial to promote healthy behaviours, particularly during a crisis. How can we better communicate complex health messages in the digital age? - Tuesday 18 May: New challenges in mental health
Loneliness and isolation caused by COVID-19 and its mitigation have aggravated mental health problems in Europe. How can we build better supportive systems to help those in need? - Wednesday 19 May: Your local community
Local solutions are often impactful ways to tackle global public health problems. How can the main players in your local community contribute to better health? - Thursday 20 May: All for one health
Animals and humans share the same eco-system, which requires multiple sectors to work together. How can the public health community collaborate to achieve one health? - Friday 21 May: Leaving no one behind
The pandemic has had a devastating impact on the most disadvantaged groups, increasing health inequalities. How can public health responses protect the most vulnerable?
