Patients across all 27 EU Member States deserve the right to have their prescription medicines delivered directly to their home. This is especially important for critically ill and disabled patients and carers. However, only 8 out of 27 Member States have allowed this choice for decades.
o unlock the full benefits to patients of enabling safe online access to prescription medicine, the newly established OnHOME Alliance – a partnership between patient organisations and healthcare associations – is organising a launch event to foster a multistakeholder dialogue on this critical issue. The event aims to gather decision-makers and experts in the field of digital and public health, to build momentum and support for the OnHOME Alliance’s initiatives in driving effective availability, accessibility, and affordability of medicines through digitalisation of healthcare services.

The starting date, date of arrival of the participants is set at Sunday 1 September 2024.

The venue is NH Hotel Bloom in Brussels. The hotel is situated at walking distance from the centre of Brussels so participants can go to the city in the evening and have a meal at their own discretion.

On Wednesday 4 September we will organize a social event in the afternoon including a dinner in the evening.

On the final Thursday evening we will provide a friendship dinner in the hotel or elsewhere. The social event on Wednesday and the friendship dinner at the last evening are both part of the summer school.

The number of participants is set at 25 patients from the membership of Europa Uomo.

The 2024 General Assembly of Europa Uomo will be held on Friday 24th of May in Milan, Italy.

The official language of the General Assembly is English. The meeting includes:

• The presentation of the Board’s Report for the year
• The approval of the accounts and budget
• The election of members to the Board of Europa Uomo. At the GA 2024, there are three incumbents who have finished their first three-year term and are possibly up for reelection.
• A Masterclass on Friday afternoon, May 24th, 2024.
