Background

On 7-8 November 2005, the European Commission held the 2nd Annual Open Health Forum in Brussels. The event brought together approximately 400 policy-makers, health professionals, advocates, NGOs, patients and academics to discuss key challenges in health in Europe.

The Forum consisted of plenary sessions with keynote speeches and 3 parallel, interactive workshops on Health Strategy (1), Health Products (2) and Health Services (3). You can see the programme of the Forum and read the speeches online.

The results of the workshops are available on this site.
