2025 Strategic Collaborations: AJRAM and the Planetary Health Alliance

This year, EuroNet MRPH has established two strategic partnerships to enhance our capacity to address critical global health challenges. These collaborations align with our recently adopted policy documents and aim to foster cross-border cooperation among young professionals.

Collaboration with AJRAM In May 2025, we formalized a partnership with AJRAM (Actions des Jeunes contre La Résistance aux Antimicrobiens). Antimicrobial resistance remains a pressing public health threat, and this collaboration allows us to work closely with a dedicated youth network to promote better stewardship and awareness strategies across Europe.

Membership in the Planetary Health Alliance As of November, EuroNet MRPH has officially joined the Planetary Health Alliance (PHA). This membership underscores our commitment to the “One Health” approach, providing our residents with a platform to engage with the intersection of environmental sustainability and human health.

Through these alliances, we aim to contribute more effectively to the discourse on these urgent topics.

Exciting Milestone: EuroNet MRPH Adopts Charter of Values and Important New Policy Documents

EuroNet MRPH is thrilled to announce the official adoption and publication of the Charter of Values and four essential policy documents on February 1, 2025, marking a significant step in our continued commitment to promoting public health across Europe.

Following an extensive collaborative process initiated in 2024, involving our National Commissions and dedicated working groups, the Charter of Values and policy documents were finally formally approved! They represent EuroNet MRPH’s foundational principles and consolidated positions on critical public health issues.

Charter of Values:

The Charter of Values outlines EuroNet MRPH’s core principles, guiding our mission and actions. It emphasizes education, cooperation, innovation, empowerment, equality and non-discrimination, intercultural exchange, transparency, accountability, health advocacy, and sustainability. These values underpin all our policies and reinforce our dedication to building a stronger, more equitable, and healthier Europe.

Policy Documents:

  1. Climate Change, One Health, and Planetary Health
    Addressing the urgent need to tackle ecological crises through holistic, multidisciplinary frameworks such as One Health and Planetary Health, this document emphasizes integrating health considerations into climate policies and promoting sustainable healthcare practices.
  2. Economic Sustainability of Health and Care Systems
    Recognizing the economic pressures on healthcare systems, this policy highlights the necessity of innovative solutions, efficient resource use, and improved economic strategies to ensure the long-term sustainability and resilience of health services.
  3. Mental Health
    Focused on comprehensive mental health policies, this document underlines the importance of societal approaches to mental well-being, addressing stigma, advocating for community-based services, and prioritizing mental health in educational and workplace settings.
  4. Political Involvement of Public Health Bodies
    Advocating active participation in political processes, this policy promotes Health in All Policies (HiAP), urging public health professionals to engage politically to shape legislation and influence public health outcomes positively.

Each document includes a clear call to action, outlining specific internal and external actions to guide our members and partners in implementing these essential strategies.

We believe these policies and values will significantly impact public health practices and advocacy across Europe.
