The School of public affairs and the Health Chair of Sciences Po are organizing a conference on the role of Europe in people health evolution and the organization of health systems.

Facing many challenges for our health systems, what roles can Europe play?

The healthcare systems of European countries are faced with major, shared changes in the health status of their populations (ageing, prevalence of chronic diseases, dependency, polypathologies - weight of environmental determinants and climate change...). Faced with this situation, major transformations of our healthcare systems are necessary and expected.

What role can Europe play, given that its competences in the field of healthcare remain limited and tied to the national prerogatives of its member states? What kind of Europe are we talking about, between the 27-member European Union and the 53-member WHO Europe? Between incentives, standards development, methodological support, experimentation and comparison, can Europe be a lever for the necessary change?

At the same time, what kind of health are we talking about? How can we question the whole field of healthcare, without restricting ourselves to hospitals or to the sole domains of care? Should we be looking at organization and governance, and from what angle?

Four high-level personalities have been invited to debate these questions

• Dr. Natasha Azzopardi Muscat, Director of the Division of Country Health Policies and Systems at WHO Europe
• Robert Otok, Director of the ASPHER (Association of Schools of Public Health in the European Region)
• Elina Suzuki, Health Policy Analyst at the OECD
• European Commission (TBC)
