Spring Meeting 2023 in Genoa: Health in a Changing World

Health in a changing world – Climate change and environmental emergency: from prevention to consequences

Genoa EuroNet Spring Meeting 2023

Record number of participants and immense success for The Annual Spring Meeting of EuroNet MRPH, which was held in Genoa from the 21 to the 23 June 2023.

More than 200 professionals of the world of Public Health came from all over Europe such as Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Norway, England, Croatia, France, Ireland and Turkey. This helped make this conference a global forum for discussion and exchange of ideas.

For the first time in Genoa, the event touched on crucial points in the current debate in the scientific world, hosting speakers and moderators of considerable cultural depth and experience.

The congress, titled “Health in a changing world – Climate change and environmental emergency: from prevention to consequences” addressed several issues with a One Health and Circular Health approach: climate change and the consequent modifications of the planet in which we live, the effects of pollution on ecosystems, the new frontiers of vaccinology and biotechnology, as well as the compelling need to effectively communicate the importance of global health care not only to policy makers and academia, but also and especially to the general public, in order to induce the empowerment necessary for change.

Plenary sessions, interactive workshops and panel discussions among experts enriched the event and were received with enthusiasm and interest by all participants.

A particularly significant aspect of this congress was the commitment to sustainable environment. The organization made sure that the event was completely eco-friendly, using recycled and recyclable materials. In addition, instead of distributing traditional gadgets, a project was initiated in collaboration with ZERO CO2, which led to the planting of trees in the Corniglia area of the Cinque Terre with the aim of cutting down carbon dioxide emissions.

This Initiative demonstrates the awareness and concrete actions in contributing to the mitigation of climate change.

Particular audience participation was registered in the interactive workshops, which put the spotlight on the health of the planet, mental health and eco-anxiety, climate change education, and the communication of health and science topics, and the European science contest, which awarded research and innovations from across Europe.

Among the prominent national and international speakers who spoke at the congress, it is only right to mention the presence of Professor Ilaria Capua, who gave a concluding speech on the topic of Circular Health that left the audience in the hall with many insights to ponder.

In conclusion, the EuroNet MRPH Annual Spring Meeting, organized by the School of Hygiene and Preventive Medicine in Genoa, played a key role in raising the alarm about climate change and in indicating the importance of immediate action to protect the health of people around the world.

With the input of internationally renowned experts, unforgettable events and strong environmental sustainability, this congress will remain in the memory of all participants as a pivotal moment in the struggle for a healthier and more sustainable future.

Spring Meeting 2023

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.

EuroNet MRPH Spring Meeting 2022 in Lyon

EuroNet MRPH Spring Meeting 2022 in Lyon

Another marvellous meeting has come to an end.

This year, Lyon and Villeurbanne had the pleasure to host the EuroNet MRPH spring meeting 2022!

The first face-to-face meeting after 2 years of COVID- 19 pandemic.

“Happiness, unity and reunion” are the words that could describe this congress best.

Happiness: to finally see each other in person

Unity: to meet European colleagues, willing to learn and share knowledge about a very hot topic: “Global Health, the path to implement policies“.

Reunion: We can proudly say that almost 180 people attended the meeting.

Speakers from prestigious institutions and organisations such as Pr Agnès Buzyn (WHO), Dr Guillaume Dedet (OECD), Dr Serge Breysse (Solthis), Dr Luis Pizarro (UNITAID), Pr Didier Pittet (University Hospital of Geneva), Pr Andre Carvalho (IARC), Dr Shufhang Zhang (The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria) attended the congress as speakers. What an honour to welcome Pr Agnès Buzyn for the opening lecture.

WORKSHOPS AND ROUND TABLE

Participants also had the opportunity to attend workshops in 4 different structures on Friday morning: the Lymphoma Academic Research Organisation (Lysarc), Fondation Mérieux, Médecins du Monde (Doctors of the World) and Sanofi.

The goal of our event couldn’t have been fulfilled without constructive discussions about the COVID- 19 pandemic, and we decided to take advantage of the multiple skills of our speakers -Pr Pittet, Dr Pizarro, Dr Ortmans- to debate during a round table entitled “Impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the global health approach”.
The theme of Global Health architecture and diplomacy in time of pandemic was also explored during the second day of the conference.
Simona Seravesi (WHO) and Marco Simonelli (ISS) presented the experience and efforts of the Italian G20 Presidency in promoting equitable, worldwide access to diagnostics, therapeutics, and vaccines.

FIRST EDITION OF THE EUROPEAN SCIENTIFIC CONTEST (ESC)

Eventually, the participants could attend and benefit from the first Euronet Scientific Contest (ESC), directly inspired by the CAISP, created by the CLISP, the french national PHR association. Seven residents from different countries had the opportunity to present their work to their colleagues and 6 other works were shown as posters! Great moments of knowledge sharing.

Congratulations to our Dutch fellow Inge Van De Luitgaarden who won the first edition of the contest with her study: “Alcohol-Attributable burden of cancer in Argentina”.

SOCIAL PROGRAM

Of course, the social program couldn’t miss this appointment! The Eurovision Song Contest, taking place during the same days of the congress, gave us the idea to have a thematic night and to share the enthusiasm of this event with all the European par- ticipants.
We also gave a taste of “French cuisine” to the attendants with a dinner in a typical “Bouchon Lyonnais”s. This experience was truly enriched by some popular songs sung by participants from all over Europe, testing their choral skills in Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese.
That’s why, EuroNet is also an exchange of culture and fun!
