First Romanian health multi-stakeholder roundtable (24 November 2025): Event report.

Abstract

The first Romanian Health Roundtable Event took place on 24 November 2025 at the Romanian Consulate General in London. This was a multidisciplinary event consisting of two parts: presentations from experts (followed by a Q&A) and a workshop for reflections on potential solutions addressing health inequalities impacting Romanian nationals in the UK. Aiming to bridge grassroots community initiatives, policy making and practice, this strategic event brought together over 70 public health practitioners, community leaders, policy makers, and researchers helping them to connect and explore three central themes, specific to the Romanian community: navigating the NHS, health inequalities, and attitudes towards vaccination. The shared aim was to highlight and progress existing work, generate insights, and co-design practical solutions for a common approach in tackling specific inequalities that this event aimed to address.
