Commercialisation of health: the other pandemic? - Webinar
16 March 2022
On 7 April, World Health Day, the European Network Against the Privatisation and Commercialisation of Health organises an annual European Day of Action.
This year the theme of the campaign will be access to vaccinations, treatments and medical devices in a non-commercial way and open to all. The Network actively supports the European Citizens’ Initiative (https://noprofitonpandemic.eu/) which calls for the lifting of patents and the sharing of technologies for COVID treatments and vaccines.
In this context, the European Network is organising two international webinars on Thursday 3 February and Thursday 3 March at 7pm. Translation will be provided for French, English and Spanish (Italian and Dutch to be confirmed).
