2026 European Forum on Prevention and Primary Care

With the global increase in the prevalence of non-communicable diseases, health systems are moving towards the implementation of prevention strategies to support healthier communities.

However, this change is not easy due to current system challenges worldwide: unsustainability, increasing demand, lack of integrated services, and reactive care models that fail to prioritize the needs of vulnerable populations. Even more, “the prevention agenda” is becoming “a trendy and commercial topic,” risking moving away from evidence and being used to satisfy political interests.

Prevention is a fundamental aspect of the work of family doctors (FDs), but how we deliver that function continues to bring debate in professional forums.

EUROPREV plays a pivotal role in this context, and we believe the upcoming Madrid 2026 Forum is a perfect opportunity to share evidence and experiences that will support European and international primary care networks to move “Towards a Safe, Effective and Person-Centered Prevention.”
