The meeting will deliver a high-level call to action for preparedness and resilience for emerging threats. The voices of leaders from communities, countries and different sector implementation partners are key for generating momentum for better infectious disease preparedness, and will be heard during the meeting.
In view of the meeting, EuroNet is collecting European Public Health residents’ experiences of the preparedness for and management of the COVID-19 pandemic, in order to bring residents’ voice and views at the meeting.
Join us in Genoa, Italy, on June 21-23 for the 2023 edition of EuroNet’s Spring Meeting! The congress is organized by the Organizing Committee of the School of Hygiene and Preventive Medicine of the University of Genova in collaboration with EuroNet MRPH Board and Leads.
This year’s theme is:
HEALTH IN A CHANGING WORLD Climate change and the environmental emergency: from prevention to consequences.
Our generation is facing a devastating and imminent crisis that cannot be ignored. Increasing extreme weather phenomena are already having catastrophic consequences on our planet and its living beings, and are expected to have profound effects on societies worldwide.
With the help of amazing international speakers, the Spring Meeting 2023 will be an opportunity to explore future public health challenges in a changing world, including environmental degradation, mental illnesses, emerging infectious diseases, migration, climate change communication in public health, and global inequities in the face of the climate crisis. Through our plenary sessions, workshops, and debates, we will also discuss possible ways forward and the frameworks that might guide Public Health in that direction, including One Health and Circular Health.
SOCIAL PROGRAM We are working to ensure you have the best time in Genoa and get the opportunity to meet and mingle with fellow colleagues from across Europe! On June 21st, we will break the ice with a free dinner together. Options for June 22nd will be announced soon, but possibilities include music and dinner in a castle (yes, that’s right) or a disco night (dinner included). We recently sent out a survey to investigate which one attracted you more and are now assessing overall preferences.
