Building Trust, Breaking Barriers: Tackling Vaccine Hesitancy for a Healthier Europe

Vaccine hesitancy poses a critical public health challenge in Europe and globally. Despite scientific advancements and the availability of safe and effective vaccines, misinformation, distrust in institutions, and cultural barriers continue to influence individual vaccination decisions. This issue was magnified during the COVID-19 pandemic, underscoring the urgent need to build trust in immunization programs.

This event in the European Parliament, organized by MEP Nicolás González Casares, aims to foster debate on strategies to combat vaccine hesitancy, strengthen public trust, and ensure equitable vaccine coverage across Europe. Importantly, the event will highlight the unique contributions of civil society organizations in addressing these challenges.

This hybrid event will take place in the European Parliament in Brussels. Room details and Zoom link will be communicated soon.
