About Us

Launched in 2023, the Jean Monnet module HEAL aims to coordinate and promote research on the legal aspects related to the creation of a European Health Union (EHU) capable not only of responding to health emergencies, but also of contributing to the strengthening of national health policies in ordinary times. 

HEAL brings together academics and experts, young researchers and health practitioners working on EU health law to assess, from an inter- and multidisciplinary perspective, how the construction of the EHU may affect the EU's system of competences and the relations between the different institutional actors involved in EU health governance. 

HEAL aims to enhance the knowledge of undergraduate and postgraduate students, young researchers and the general public about the process of European integration in the health sector, the EU health legal framework and the multiple actors involved in EU health governance.
