Description of this webinar:

The COVID-19-pandemic exposed the importance of coordination among European countries to protect people's health, both during a crisis and in normal times when we can tackle underlying health conditions, invest in strong health systems, and train the healthcare workforce. Since 2020, the EU has improved its health security architecture by reinforcing existing and creating new structures and through the establishment of a European Health Union.

This webinar focused on the new legislative framework of the Regulation (EU) 2022/2371 on serious cross-border threats to health, the role of the Health Security Committee, as well as the extended mandate of the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC).

In accordance with the new Regulation, the Commission and the Member States intended to invite stakeholders to discuss issues of relevance to coordination, prevention, preparedness and response planning in the Health Security Committee, when appropriate.
