Karsten Uno Petersen, President of the AER Committee on Social Policy and Public Health and Vice President of the region of Southern Denmark, and Anthoni Zwiefka, Senior Specialist of Lower Silesia (PL) shared their experience on the use of structural funds for health during the information session AER co-organised in partnership with COCIR, the trade association of the healthcare industry, HOPE, the European Hospital and Healthcare Federation on 7 October in Brussels, at the Open Days.
Both speakers highlighted the relevance of interregional cooperation to improve information to stakeholders from hospitals and the industry on the potential of structural funds for health. Over the past few years AER has provided its members with guidance on structural funds via the masterclasses organised within the EuregioIII project, as well as via a specific Structural funds for Health information campaign in 2012.
