Other: F1.1 Health care - Public Health and the Pandemics

In this forum we will discuss the various consequences of the pandemic and the healthcare policies of our governments, the EU and international institutions. Health cannot be bought, we want to stand up for the common good and against the profits of the pharmaceutical companies. Many studies show that the pandemic has increased inequalities at national, European and global levels. What alternatives can we propose to address this situation? What place do people in the global South have in this struggle? What place do healthcare workers in our countries have?
In a second part of the discussion we will talk more specifically about the struggles in the healthcare system in Europe. How are healthcare workers mobilising their unions and networks? What are their proposals and demands against hospital restructuring and privatisation? What struggles and networks are they organising? Is it possible to improve the coordination of our struggles in Europe and abroad?
