In line with its 2022 global health strategy (GHS), the expansion of international partnerships on health is a priority for the European Union (EU). As the 2020 Africa strategy underlines, the African continent, including at regional and national levels, is one of the EU's strategic partners, not least on health. Nevertheless, it was not until February 2022, in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, that health was explicitly included as one of the strategic priorities of the EU–African Union (AU) partnership ...

The new EU global health strategy, adopted by the European Commission on 30 November 2022, has been positioned as a crucial element of EU external policy, geopolitical influence and strategic autonomy. However, maintaining the long term commitment necessary for achieving global health ambitions in turbulent times remains challenging. Against this backdrop, in 2023 the Policy Foresight Unit of the European Parliamentary Research Service conducted a foresight exercise involving external experts to ...

Nearly 400 million children around the world are projected to live with obesity by 2035. Worryingly, that is double the number in 2020. 'Our children are increasingly growing up in environments that make it very difficult for them to eat well and be active. This is a root cause of the obesity epidemic', argued Dr Hans Henri P. Kluge, Regional Director for the World Health Organization (WHO) in Europe. Worryingly, child obesity often carries through to adolescence and is likely to endure into adulthood ...

During its February II session, the European Parliament is expected to vote its first-reading position on two legislative proposals: a draft recast regulation on the supplementary protection certificate (SPC) and a draft regulation on the unitary SPC, both concerning medicinal products. These parallel proposals are part of a broader package on improving intellectual property rights.

In February 2023, the Commission put forward a proposal for a directive aimed at revising the existing limit values for lead, and introducing, for the first time, limit values for diisocyanates, aimed at achieving a high level of protection of workers' health and safety. On 14 November 2023, the co-legislators reached a provisional agreement on the proposal. The agreed text, which requires formal adoption by both institutions, is expected to be put to a plenary vote in February.

As part of its fight against harmful substances, on 13 February 2023 the Commission tabled a proposal for a directive aimed at protecting workers' health by lowering occupational exposure to lead and diisocyanates. The proposed directive would set, for the first time, occupational limit values for diisocyanates, while revising the limit values for lead for the first time in more than 40 years. It would also include a review mechanism to guarantee regular revisions from now on to make sure that those ...

Lijekovi i medicinski proizvodi

Informativni članci o EU-u 15-01-2024

Lijekovi i medicinski proizvodi podliježu pravilima jedinstvenog tržišta i izravno utječu na zdravlje ljudi. Za zaštitu javnog zdravlja i jamčenje sigurnosti tih proizvoda uspostavljen je čvrst pravni okvir. Dostupnost pristupačnih lijekova, borba protiv antimikrobne rezistencije, etičko provođenje kliničkih ispitivanja, korištenje umjetne inteligencije u medicinskim proizvodima te poticaji za istraživanje i razvoj samo su neka od ključnih pitanja kojima se EU bavi u tom području.

Informativni članci o EU-u 09-01-2024

Onečišćenje zraka najveći je okolišni rizik za zdravlje u Europi. U Strategiji EU-a za kvalitetu zraka iz 2013. nastoji se ostvariti puno poštovanje postojećeg zakonodavstva o kvaliteti zraka do 2020. te se utvrđuju dugoročni ciljevi za 2030.godinu. EU također nastoji dodatno poboljšati kvalitetu zraku revizijom direktiva o kvaliteti zraka. Direktivom o buci iz okoliša iz 2002. pomaže se utvrditi razine buke u EU-u i poduzeti mjere da ih se smanji na prihvatljive razine. Zasebnim zakonodavstvom uređuje ...
