ECHO works with our members, partner organisations, and European Union Commission staff to raise the needs of the children and young people we care for and help find solutions.
Advocacy priorities:
- Advancing sustainable and green hospitals
- Promoting the rights of children and young people in hospital
- Raising the profile of children and young people with complex and rare diseases
- Ensuring health data sharing platforms prioritize and include children’s hospitals
ECHO is an ongoing partner of Ride for Their Lives, a non-profit that works with paediatricians around the world to raise awareness about the impact of climate change on child health and support health care professionals in taking action to address it.
