As part of #SoHEU, our Policy Dialogue in Stockholm brought together Nordic policymakers and experts to explore a critical shift: how health systems can move from treating disease to preventing it in the first place.

The event was organised with @ec.europa.eu & hosted by #Socialstyrelsen. 📚👇

That's a wrap on our week at @gasteinforum.bsky.social

Our #OBSatGastein contributions at centred on providing the evidence, tools & frameworks policymakers need to build health systems that can adapt for the future & cope before, during and after a shock.

🧵 A thread has run through our contributions at @gasteinforum.bsky.social: how to meet the moment of rapid change in EU health, and what it takes to act now

Some change is palpable, but other questions are harder to get at. How is a health system performing today, and how would it cope if tested?

Is the #EuropeanHealthUnion entering a new era?

@matthiaswismar.bsky.social is at the @gasteinforum.bsky.social #EHFG2026, where we’re all talking about how the health landscape has changed.

Themes like competitiveness, security & strategic autonomy are actively redefining health policy in Europe

☀️ Day two at @gasteinforum.bsky.social : #PrivateEquity in healthcare, health as the missing ingredient in Europe's competitiveness debate, and where EU health policy goes next. All on our agenda today.
