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.
Under the seventh Environmental Action Plan (7th EAP), the European Commission is committed to the development of a Union’s strategy for a non-toxic environment by the end of 2018. According to the Health and Environment Alliance (HEAL), keeping that promise will be a game changer.
Following the publication of HEAL’s vision on Europe leading the way to a non-toxic environment, we wrote a letter to the European Commission outlying our vision for a European non-toxic environment strategy and a proposal for twelve priority actions.
A letter from the European Commission responding to this urge to action is available online.
