Our health is of immense importance to us all. It determines many aspects of our lives such as our level of wellbeing, our interactions with others, and the things we do every day.
In the EU, while the Member States are responsible for organising their healthcare systems, national measures are complemented by European-wide policies that seek to achieve common objectives. For example, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the EU has been working hard to better prevent, prepare for and respond to such shared challenges by developing a European Health Union.
The actions taken under this initiative cover many areas including crisis preparedness, access to medicines, anti-microbial resistance, mental health and cancer. The EU is also working on developing a European Health Data Space which will facilitate the provision of cross-border healthcare and help research into health matters in the EU among others. The EU's efforts to build stronger, more resilient and more accessible health systems are being supported by the EU4Health programme – the most ambitious EU funding programme for health investments ever.
