The Health Policy Platform has been created to enable health stakeholder organisations to share knowledge on EU-health issues, engage in a laboratory of ideas and enter in an interactive dialogue with the Commission services.
We were approached and presented our application in August and it was accepted.
We are now on the mailing lists of the General Directorate of Health and our University Diploma in Health and Thermalism as well as our congress of the Second Franco-Moroccan Conference on Thermalism are now on these lists.
We plan to organize other events soon with your help, including a Winter MasterClass in hydrotherapy in the form of a one-hour webinar that will be broadcast live on the platform of the Health Directorate of the European Commission.
We will soon be supported for our actions by young trainees who have graduated from the European Commission’s Health Directorate.
This integration will allow for the engagement of multidisciplinary consortia, including partners from the EU-27 and EU-61 (i.e. countries with which the European Union has a free-regime visa).
