A year since being confirmed as WHO Regional Director for Europe, Dr Hans Henri P. Kluge has overseen the endorsement by Member States of the European Programme of Work, 2020–2025 – “United Action for Better Health in Europe” (EPW), which has already had an impact on WHO/Europe’s response to the pandemic.
The EPW includes 4 flagship initiatives: behavioural and cultural insights, mental health, immunization, and digital health. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, WHO/Europe has been leading the way, showing how these initiatives provide support and guidance during health emergencies, and can act as a catalyst for the work of the Regional Office and health authorities in the coming years.
