Exciting developments unfolded in Brussels as Katrina Messiha concluded her secondment at EuroHealthNet on December 15th, 2023. In her role as an Academic and Policy Researcher, Katrina focused on crafting a Policy Précis addressing health equity through inclusive participatory processes. This document provides a comprehensive briefing for members and policymakers, exploring core principles, relevant EU policies and offering actionable recommendations.
