As the European elections approach, numerous policy recommendations are proposed on the priorities of the new institutions.
Yet, there is a risk of overlooking the substantial work already underway. Therefore, it is imperative to highlight the concrete actions taken by key stakeholders in several sectors.
For this reason, the policy dialogue event organised by Cittadinanzattiva-Active Citizenship Network at the EU Parliament on 14 February 2024 and titled “Strengthening vaccination policies towards the European elections: from recommendations to concrete experiences” aims to present concrete activities carried out – in the field of vaccination policies – by different stakeholders, including civil society organisations, the private sector, European project consortia, etc.
The event will promote the importance of vaccinations and the need for effective communication strategies aimed at improving access to and uptake of vaccines.
The initiative, kindly hosted by MEP Beatrice Covassi (S&D) with the support of the MEPs Interest Group “European Patients’ Rights and Cross-border Healthcare” represents an opportunity for networking, knowledge exchange and collaborative discussions and is the final step of the European project #VaccinAction2023.
The project, carried out by Cittadinanzattiva-Active Citizenship Network, focuses on the need to continue to advocate for strengthening adult immunisation in Europe, to protect the value of routine immunisation and its benefits, and to facilitate dialogue between key stakeholders and European institutions.
