  • EU Health Prize for Journalists 20 0
    EU Health Prize for Journalists 200 Europe for Patients EU Health Prize for Journalists 2010 foreword By Paola Testori Coggi, Director General, DG Health & Consumers The second edition of the EU Health Prize for Journalists gathers another outstanding collection of health articles from journalists in the 27 countries of the European Union. This year, we have built on the success of last year’s Prize with 42% more journalists taking part – 438 in total. The National juries have had to work especially hard to evaluate 745 eligible articles. This is a rise of 60% since last year. I would like to thank sincerely both the National Jury and EU Jury members for their work and dedication. A special thanks also to colleagues from the Commission’s Representations and from the Directorate General for Translations who contributed to the success of this Prize. The 27 national winning articles that appear in this booklet are on diverse subjects such as cancer, child birth, migration of doctors and the H1N1 flu pandemic. The issues raised cover the entire life span, with articles on pediatric cardiology and autism through to dementia and hospice care. Many are forward looking, covering for example eHealth and cross-border medicine. Seven of the final articles are on the subject of organ transplants. This is an important and emotive issue and an area where the Commission can claim a concrete achievement this year. The Organs Directive, adopted in May, ensures that European citizens in need of an organ transplant can benefit from the best possible quality and safety conditions, and that all donations remain voluntary and unpaid.
