The European Federation of Older Persons (EURAG ) has initiated the project "Making Palliative Care a Priority Topic on the European Health Agenda".
In collaboration with Palliative Care experts Dr. Johann Baumgartner and Dr. Markus Narath (both from the University of Graz, Austria) and with active involvement and consultation of a series of leading Palliative Care experts at European level, EURAG has worked out a Catalogue of Recommendations.
This catalogue was presented at the Conference "Making Palliative Care a Priority Topic on the European Health Agenda" held on 23 January 2004 in Brussels.
Some of EURAG’s recommendations on "Palliative Care" have been included in the Jöns MEP report Health Care and Care for the Elderly that was elaborated by the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs of the European Parliament.
