As the revision of EU chemicals legislation REACH is underway, the Health and Environment Alliance urges the European Commission to uphold its commitments on safer chemicals and ensure that ambitious health protections remain at the heart of the project.
On 7 May, Members of the European Parliament will be voting on the draft resolution on A revamped long-term budget for the Union in a changing world, for the EU’s next Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF), stating the European Parliament’s (EP) priorities for EU financing for the next budget cycle 2028-2034.
People’s health in the EU is threatened like never before from the triple crisis of climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution. Urgent action is needed to prevent further suffering, to strengthen health resilience, protect vulnerable groups and help to reduce socio-economic inequalities.
HEAL therefore considers it crucial that the next EU MFF paves the way for reducing the substantial health cost of pollution, as well as for increasing investments to protect people’s health against the triple crisis.
