EUREGHA is excited to promote the European Health Management Conference 2025, co-hosted by the French School of Public Health (EHESP)! This event is a must-attend for health professionals, policymakers, and innovators looking to shape the future of health management.
Health systems across Europe face unprecedented challenges that threaten the accessibility, equity, and sustainability of care. Today’s health services must respond not only to the immediate needs of patients but also to broader societal issues such as workforce shortages, the rise of chronic diseases, the impacts of digitalisation, and environmental sustainability. To address these critical challenges, this conference seeks to explore practical, scalable solutions and reimagine how health management can be mobilised to build healthier communities.
The title, ‘Taking action to improve health for all’, reflects our commitment to fostering dynamic, proactive health management that extends beyond traditional care facilities. We recognise that health management plays a crucial role in bridging the gap between policy and practice, ensuring that strategies translate into tangible benefits for citizens and communities. The goal is not just to manage health systems, but to actively shape them in ways that promote prevention, equity, and resilience across all levels – from system-wide initiatives to individual care.
At the heart of our approach is the understanding that nurturing healthier communities requires collective action. A siloed approach, where different sectors work in isolation, cannot adequately address the complex, interconnected health challenges of today. Instead, we advocate for a Health in All Policies and One Health approach, recognising that health outcomes are deeply influenced by factors outside the traditional healthcare sector. By considering environmental, economic, and social determinants of health, we ensure that policies are holistic and impactful, improving the wellbeing of both people and the planet.
Health management, therefore, must be a multi-level effort. It involves systems thinking to ensure equitable access and sustainability at a macro level, organisational leadership to drive innovation and integrate digital tools at the meso level, and empowering individuals to take charge of their health at the micro level. By embracing this vision, health managers act as facilitators of change, not just within healthcare facilities, but within entire communities.
This conference is a call to action: to mobilise health management as a force for creating healthier, more equitable societies. It invites professionals from across sectors to collaborate, innovate, and build resilient, integrated systems that put citizens at the centre of health policy and practice. Through collective effort, we can meet the demands of today’s health challenges and ensure the wellbeing of future generations.
