A Europe that Champions Well-being: Reframing EU priorities for the next five years
20-03-2019
A global paradigm shift is occurring in attitudes towards economic and social progress. From a GDP centred model, a new paradigm now focuses on improving citizen's well-being. All Policies for a Healthy Europe is a multi-stakeholder initiative calling for Europe to be part of that transformation in policy thinking and action.
If you’d like to attend the launch of the All Policies for a Healthy Europe Manifesto to discuss how cross- and inter-sectoral action on health and well-being can be embedded in broader EU strategies for sustainable development and inclusive growth, please get in contact through the link.
