Transformation in Practice: the third Meeting of the Coalition of Partners to Strengthen Public Health Services in the European Region (2019)

Report of the Expert Meeting

27–28 November 2018, Ljubljana, Slovenia

The WHO Regional Office for Europe and Slovenia’s Ministry of Health convened the Third Meeting of the Coalition of Partners to Strengthen Public Health Services in the European Region in November 2018 in Ljubljana, Slovenia to enable the participants:

• to discuss the questions that mattered most to them and the Coalition of Partners;
• to learn from the past, present and emerging future about the art and science of strengthening public health services;
• to co-create activities for 2019; and
• to explore what the Coalition of Partners would become.

The participants reflected on the lessons learned since the Coalition of Partners was founded in 2017, explored further opportunities for joint work in 2019 and formed a core group and advisory group to guide the further development of the Coalition of Partners.
