The European Health Report 2024, the latest flagship publication from the WHO Regional Office for Europe, is now available. Released every three years, this essential report offers an in-depth overview of the health landscape across the WHO European Region, tracking progress, identifying persistent challenges, and setting priorities for the years ahead.

Built around the “United Action for Better Health” measurement framework from the WHO European Programme of Work (2020–2025), the 2024 edition confronts the enduring impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. It highlights the complex mix of health threats — both emerging and long-standing — that demand urgent, coordinated responses.

Looking forward, this Report serves as a foundational guide for the next European Programme of Work, set to begin in 2026. Its evidence-rich insights will directly inform upcoming policy action, supported by an accompanying evidence-for-policy action brief.
