Today, directors of the Green 10, of which HEAL is a member, met with European Commission President von der Leyen and shared civil society’s recommendations for policy action.
As the European Commission is currently finalising the post-2027 Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) proposal set to be launched on 16 July 2025, HEAL has sent a letter to the EU Commission President, the Executive Vice-Presidents, and Commissioners urging to scale up public investments into health protection from pollution and climate change in the next EU budget.
The EU Healthy Air Coalition (EUHAC), a coalition of diverse constituencies of the health sector, urges the Commission President to ensure that the next EU budget will help the EU substantially advance towards clean air and the prevention of the major diseases caused by air pollution.
