Calling for a comprehensive EU policy response to improve the cardiovascular health of European citizens

Taking the pulse: A Cardiovascular Health plan for Europe

Join us in this milestone event in the European Parliament, on Thursday 17 November from 15:00 to 17:00 CET, hosted by MEP Tomislav Sokol.

The event is an opportunity to discuss how the EU can act to improve cardiovascular health for all, the 60 million people in Europe suffering from the cardiovascular disease today, and the millions of people that are living with cardiovascular disease without being diagnosed.

Attendees will hear from a rich panel of speakers including cardiovascular patients, MEPs, national policymakers, and experts in cardiovascular health policy.
