The European Commission has launched a call for expression of interest aiming at the selection of the ECDC Advisory Forum members. The deadline for submission of applications is 4 April 2024.

CLCI, together with MEP Tomislav Sokol and the European Institute for Innovation through Health Data, has produced a report exploring ways of improving the use of data in national immunisation programme planning.

Since 2018, the work of the European Commission on vaccination has been guided by the Council Recommendation on strengthened cooperation against vaccine-preventable diseases. The aim of this report is to support possible policy developments in the future.

Chaired by DG SANTE, EU Member States agreed on prioritising for 2024-2026: health promotion & prevention of non-communicable diseases; healthy longevity/lifelong prevention; vaccine-preventable diseases & vaccination; and long COVID, amongst others.

This webinar provides an overview of WHO resources available to support countries in developing/strengthening their programmes and highlight examples of national and regional good practices for seasonal influenza prevention and control.

On the first-ever Health Day at a COP, more than 40 million health professionals from around the globe joined the call to action by the WHO and civil society organizations, to prioritize health in climate negotiations at COP28.
