#EUPHW2025 may be over, but the movement continues. πŸ’¬ From local events to global voices, this week proved that real change in public health happens together. As @charlottemar.bsky.social says: β€œEUPHW is not a moment. It’s a movement.”

European Public Health Week 2025 was our biggest yet β€” thanks to the small but mighty team behind the scenes.

This year, we marked two exciting milestones:
🌍 Record number of events
πŸ›οΈ First-ever launch event in @europarl.europa.eu

From logistics to content, they made it happen.
