This week SP-EU partners took part in a colloquium on vulnerability in primary care in Ghent, Belgium. It brought together 65 researchers, policymakers, and primary care professionals to discuss how health systems can better respond to poverty and social inequality.

It was fantastic to connect with colleagues from across the Baltic Sea region at the Arts on Prescription conference in Vilnius last week, hosted by Northern Dimension Partnership in Public Health and Social Well-being (NDPHS).

At the European Health Forum Gastein 2025, we were delighted to take part in the session “Social, green, and arts prescriptions for health”.

Good to see a feature on German TV last week about social prescribing, focusing in particular on museums and arts on prescription. This includes interviews with Wolfram from Charité and Nick from the National Academy for Social Prescribing, who are both part of SP-EU.

Wolfram and Farhad from Charité were delighted to go on their first partner visit to @aau.dk in Denmark, where they attended a co-creation workshop with refugees. It's crucial to adapt social prescribing to the people we're trying to reach.
