On April 4, 2024, NOVA NSPH hosted the Consensus Workshop with the partner network of the White Paper “Leading the Way to a Healthy Future.” This collaborative session represents a significant moment in the co-creation journey of innovative solutions for the future of public health in Portugal.
The project “Leading The Way To a Healthy Future – Innovation in Public Health,” presented to the public in October 2023, is led by NOVA NSPH and involves over 80 partner institutions from various sectors (central entities, municipalities, healthcare organizations, healthcare professionals, academia, healthcare and technological industries, scientific societies and foundations, patient associations, and citizens, among others). Its aim is to reflect upon and present recommendations for the future of public health.
Resulting from the collaboration of this broad and diversified network of organizations from the public, private, and social sectors, the recommendations, focusing on 4 priority areas – Health Policies and Systems, Healthy Workforce, Healthy Communities, and Sustainable Health and Innovation – will materialize in the construction of a White Paper to be publicly presented by the end of the 1st semester of 2024.
The Consensus Workshop of the White Paper constitutes one of the most relevant phases of this collaborative process and aimed at gathering feedback from the partner network regarding the feasibility, applicability, and relevance of the presented recommendations and identifying action strategies for the adoption of the recommendations.
“Leading The Way To a Healthy Future – Innovation in Public Health” is supported by Sanofi, Meo Empresas, Medtronic, Johnson & Johnson, Novartis, Novo Nordisk, Real Life Technologies, Roche Farmacêutica, and Roche Diagnostics.
