European Public Health Association

EUPHA works together with a lot of partners. We call ourselves a deliberately collaborative organisation, meaning that we are always keen to establish partnerships to build stronger evidence and increase the impact of our advocacy. Some of our partnerships are based on formal memorandum of understandings (MoUs) or work programmes, while others are more informal.

EUPHA publishes a scientific journal six times a year entitled European Journal of Public Health. The EJPH does not only publish refereed original articles, but also provides a forum for discussion and debate of current international public health issues with a focus on the European region.

EUPHA convenes the European Public Health conference each year (2021 virtual, 2022 Berlin, Germany), bringing together public health experts throughout Europe and beyond. The conferences offer a platform for the exchange of information and an opportunity for international research groups to meet and present their work.

Research findings will be translated in evidence-based guidelines and an educational platform for health care professionals. EUPHA’s role is to disseminate project progress and results and build capacities among health professionals.

The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.

1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
