HYBRID CONFERENCE | BAD HOFGASTEIN, AUSTRIA
EHFG 2025: Rethinking solidarity in health
Healing Europe´s fractured social contract
The social contract, a shared understanding that binds individuals, families, communities, workplaces, and institutions, underpins the cohesion that makes our societies work. Every day, we participate in this contract through mutual obligations such as caregiving, paying taxes, and supporting public services. At its core lies solidarity, which is essential for our collective well-being. However, with politicised immigration, disinformation campaigns, and a disconnect between people and politics, a polarised world has emerged where solidarity is under threat. Many feel that the social contract is fractured or benefits others more than them. Healing it must start with health, a sector uniquely positioned to restore trust and solidarity. In these uncertain times, safeguarding European values rooted in a strong social contract is more urgent than ever.
Join us at the hybrid EHFG 2025 from 30 September - 3 October, and let’s explore together how we can heal Europe’s fractured social contract for health and well-being!
