Arte: It's not a matter of if there will a new pandemic – but when

When the Covid-19 pandemic exploded into Europe in March 2020, it’s safe to say that the European Union was not prepared. Five years on, there’s been a lot of progress, from being ready to detect a new disease outbreak to improving cross-border cooperation on medical equipment and vaccines. But one main issue is the loss of trust in public health authorities, and that’s harder to regain.

This programme is produced by the European platform ARTE and available in 10 languages through the European media partnership "EMOVE Hub". The hub is coordinated by ARTE and includes Balkan insight (BIRN), Sinopsis (BIRN Romania), El País (ES), Gazeta Wyborcza (PL), Internazionale (IT), Ir, (LV), Kathimerini (GR), Le Soir (BE) and Telex (HU). The partnership receives EU-funding following DG CNECT’s call for „European Media Hubs” within the framework of the EU’s Multimedia Actions.
