Secretariat of the MEP Interest Group Health Inequalities, Prevention and Risk Factors
This interest group is determined to act in a clear and decisive way, influencing different policies that affect health, particularly by addressing the main NCDs risk factors. The draft declaration calls for the following:
- Continued funding for health and especially for prevention and risk factors, including in the next Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF), as well as ongoing funding for NGOs working on public health issues.
- Stronger legislative commitments to include health in all policy areas, such as agriculture and food policy, education, workforce resilience, and security.
- Better conflict-of-interest monitoring to stop the undue influence on health policies.
The secretariat of this interest group is hosted by Eurocare, EUPHA and EuroHealthNet.
