The Ministry of Health and the Personalised Medicine Consortium (PMC) of Luxembourg are cordially inviting the general public of Luxembourg to be part of a ground-breaking national health summit on 3 May 2012.

A new vision for Luxembourg

Luxembourg can become the first nation in the world in which every person has an opportunity to avoid preventable diseases, to access effective diagnostic and therapeutic care for curable diseases, and to adapt and self-manage when faced with unavoidable sources of suffering.

Luxembourg can achieve this goal by bringing together leading local, national and international organisations to evaluate, plan and implement sustainable business models for innovations that make Luxembourg the healthiest country in the world.

The Luxembourg Health Summit is designed to lay the foundations for launching an initiative to introduce innovations that promote optimal levels of health in Luxembourg and set milestones to be achieved by 2017 for the projects agreed upon.

Attendees at the Summit will

• learn about successful initiatives that are already improving the population’s health and accelerating the transformation of health systems in other regions of the world
• hear about innovative initiatives that are currently enabling individuals or communities to adapt and self-manage their lives in the face of physical, mental or social challenges
• learn about proposed new bold pilot projects identified by key opinion leaders and designed to get Luxembourg on the road to become the healthiest country on earth, one person at a time.

With the participation of

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Luxembourg
Mars Di Bartolomeo, Minister of Health, Luxembourg
Rafael Bengoa, Minister of Health and Consumer Affairs, Basque Country, Spain

This Summit is open to all members of the public of Luxembourg. If you wish to attend, please register online before 25 April 2012.
