As part of this campaign a petition has been opened that can be signed by any organisation willing to support EPHA’s call.
A webpage is dedicated to this campaign and includes a social media toolkit: https://epha.org/eu-do-more-for-health-campaign/
It answers two main questions:
- Why do we need EU action on health?
- What does the EU do for your health?
Health is a key issue which is likely to become even more important with the rapid ageing of Europe’s population. The European Union has an important role to play in the health area in fostering and strengthening cooperation among EU countries and building common standards to fight discrimination and inequalities.
