ELF EPAP Live: EU Advocacy

DATE:ย  14 Nov 2024
TIME: 12:00 – 13:30
ELF - European Lung Foundation Favicon

Our upcoming EPAP Live webinar will take place online on Thursday 14 November 12:00 โ€“ 13:30 CET and focus on EU advocacy. The session will cover advocacy strategies in health policy, including how EU policy impacts us on a national levelย and how to engage policymakers.

Our experts will answer key questions, including:

  • Where is the line between national and EU action in health policy? And in which areas do the EU act to have more of an impact than actions taken at the national or local levels.
  • How can you bring your health priorities to the attention of policymakers?
  • How do you run an advocacy campaign at the EU and national level?

The session will also include an interactive discussion with the opportunity to ask questions to advocacy experts.

This informative and interactive event is part of a series of live webinars related to theย European Patient Ambassador Programmeย (EPAP). EPAP is a free, online, self-learning programme that introduces patients and carers to some of the basic skills and knowledge needed to represent yourself and others successfully.
