Building capacity and identifying appropriate support: How can the EU contribute to securing resources for health systems?

European health systems face increasing challenges and demands, while striving to provide high-quality care. The European Union (EU) offers support to complement national efforts, but accessing and utilising it can be challenging for Member States. Austria, Belgium, and Slovenia are collaborating on a multi-country project supported by the EU’s Technical Support Instrument, to create an EU Health Resources Hub. This advisory service aims to help Member States access EU funding instruments for their health needs. This article discusses the project’s goals and early learnings, offering insights that could inform future health funding opportunities and policies in Europe.
