Have your say! – Collection of input on skills development and working conditions promoted by HTP Health Workgroup

The Health Working Group of the European Commission’s DG REGIO Harnessing Talent Platform has recently launched two collection of inputs, focusing on: 

1. Good/promising practices on skills development  

1. Working conditions of healthcare professionals 

As co-leader of the Health Workgroup, EUREGHA is happy to share these opportunities and call regional and EU stakeholders in the filed to gather evidence and qualitative data to enrich the HTP analysis. The results of these two collections will be used to build concrete catalogues and toolkit to help regional policymakers shape better policies to address current challenges in the health sector. Your contribution would be extremely valuable to enrich our work and help us shape the HTP outputs. 

More detailed information about the two initiatives is embedded here below.

More information about the HTP

The HTP was established in 2023 as a platform dedicated to building knowledge and facilitating the exchange of experiences in the framework of the Talent Booster Mechanism initiative. Its primary objective is to support regions in addressing the consequences of demographic changes and mitigating challenges related to the decline of tertiary-educated populations throughout the EU, especially the 46 regions currently facing a talent development trap. The HTP ensures that affected regions have access to the necessary guidance, information, and knowledge to develop tailored and comprehensive strategies for training, attracting and retaining talent.
