This is the first of a series of five webinars examining different aspects of the theme of health in its widest sense, from the perspective of two European health NGOs – the Nordic Health 2030 Movement and the European Health Futures Forum - both committed to supporting social change. The theme is respecting healthcare
professionals’ expertise but acknowledging the importance of prevention, promotion of wellbeing and getting the community voice articulated and able to shape the future of health in society.
We start by considering health in the context of society, of communities working together, sharing collective and individual responsibility both to preserve and improve health and well-being but also supporting transformational change within society, for the betterment of the planet, the environment, for our children and for those who depend on us.
Convener:
- Lars Münter, Director, Danish Committee for Health Education

- Cormac Russell, MD of Nurture Development on Asset Based Community development
- Kristine Sorenson, Director of the Global Health Literacy Academy on the power of health literacy
- Jim Phillips, Director of the Centre for Patient and Community Empowerment on tools to support community empowerment
- Matthijs Zwier, Utrecht HealthPact on Dutch approaches to community action on health
- Cathy Irvine, Deputy head of Communications, The Health Foundation UK on health inequality and its implications.
Organizers
The Nordic Health 2030 Movement (www.nordichealth2030.org ) is a network of 30 or more Nordic organisations supporting better health through an equal balance between care and prevention. They are value driven, committed to trust and openness, creativity and innovation, the concept of individual responsibility and finally, to cultivation: building on these principles through social movements. Represented here by Lars Muenter who leads for Communications as part of his ‘day-job’ on international health projects with the Danish Committee for Health Education, in Copenhagen.
The European Health Futures Forum is a network organisation registered in Ireland, but with Directors and Board reflecting its international focus. EHFF seeks to transform healthcare and improve the well-being of European citizens by highlighting and addressing prominent factors impacting health and wellness. EHFF is also value driven, seeking to address, through the lens of health and wellbeing, issues such as social cohesion, dysfunctional financial models, environmental sustainability and education with an open-source, inclusive and inter-generational approach. David Somekh, Network Director, on behalf of his EHFF colleagues, has co-produced these webinars.
