Health data: ethics framework initiative launched

The French Council Presidency wants to develop an ethical framework as the basis for the planned European Health Data Space. The initiative was launched at the „Citizenship, Ethics and Health Data“ conference. The goals pursued with the creation of the European Health Data Space (EHDS) cannot be achieved without the trust of citizens, stressed French Health Minister Olivier Véran. „The EHDS will be created for and with the citizens or not at all,“ he said.
