Announcing the 2025 European Health Management Conference to take place in Rennes, France under the theme ‘Taking action to improve health for all’
The European Health Management Association (EHMA) and the French School of Public Health (EHESP) are pleased to announce the 30th edition of the European Health Management Conference, to be held on 4-6 June 2025 in Rennes, France. This annual event will take place on the EHESP campus, an internationally renowned institution committed to advancing public health and health management through cutting-edge research and training.
As the host institution, EHESP views this event as a valuable opportunity to enhance its impact on the
Metropolis of Rennes, the University of Rennes, the Brittany region, and France as a whole. It aims to strengthen the country’s leadership in public health and health system management, furthering its positive influence across these regions.
“I am very honoured and excited to make the institution’s diverse expertise, welcoming facilities, and
extensive network available to ensure the success of this annual event dedicated to knowledge sharing and strengthening collaborations.” – Isabelle Richard, Director of EHESP.
The European Health Management Conference has a long-standing history in bridging research and practice in health management. Renowned institutions, researchers and practitioners gather each year to share high – level research in health management, as the Conference provides a platform to ensure that such knowledge is implementable, transferable and replicable in different contexts, regions and countries.
This year’s conference theme, ‘Taking action to improve health for all’ reflects the critical need to address
challenges threatening the sustainability, accessibility, and equity of healthcare systems across Europe. With a focus on fostering collective action, the event will highlight the importance of a ‘Health in All Policies’ and ‘One Health’ approach, acknowledging that health outcomes are deeply connected to environmental, economic, and social factors.
The conference will provide a platform to harness health management as a catalyst for fostering healthier
and more equitable societies. It calls on professionals from various sectors to collaborate, innovate, and
develop resilient, integrated systems that prioritise citizens in health policy and practice.
“I am proud to invite health leaders, managers, researchers, and policymakers from across Europe and
beyond to gather in our ongoing mission to shape the future of health management. The theme for this year embodies our commitment to tackling the critical challenges facing health systems. With a dynamic
programme, participants will explore the ways in which health management can be a transformative force
in building healthier, more resilient communities. The discussions will not be limited to policy or theory; we will look to bridge the gap between strategy and practice, ensuring that health management drives tangible improvements for citizens at all levels of care. The European Health Management Conference 2025 will once again be the premier forum for thought leadership in health management.” – Antoni Peris-Grao, MD, President of the European Health Management Association.
