ON BEHALF OF JOINT ACTION CHRODIS PLUS

WE WOULD LIKE TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR PARTICIPATION AT THE CONFERENCE

Key conference materials will be made available soon here.

PRESS RELEASE

Over its 3-year lifespan, the aim of CHRODIS PLUS Joint Action (2017-2020) was to support Member States in overcoming the burden of chronic diseases by promoting policies and practices that have proved successful in the past. Further refinement and EU cross-border sharing of these tested policies and good practices has been the core idea behind this pan-European project.

CHRODIS PLUS has implemented 21 pilot projects aimed at testing tools and good practices for certain chronic diseases, and held 17 policy dialogues (15 national and 2 EU-level ones). It has brought together over 50 partners from 21 European countries.

All good things come to an end: CHRODIS PLUS held its closing online conference on 27 October 2020.

This conference illustrated the impact that CHRODIS PLUS has had on public health systems across EU member states over the past 3 years. It focused on showing how the good practices, models and tools implemented by the project can be tailored to various national and local settings across Europe.

The conference’s presentations and roundtable discussions were structured around the project’s key focus areas:

• Health Promotion & Primary Prevention
• An Integrated Multimorbidity Care Model
• Fostering Quality Care for People with Chronic Diseases
• ICT-based Patient Empowerment
• Employment & Chronic Diseases
