OBJECTIVES:


Establish contact with national hypertension societies across Europe 

This objective has nearly been achieved, with 90% of national societies successfully engaged by mid-2025.


Increase membership across all categories 

We will focus on increasing membership numbers in the Member, Associate Member and Trainee categories.


Promote collaboration and harmonisation among national societies 

We plan to foster co-operation and alignment on hypertension-related initiatives across Europe, facilitating shared knowledge and resources for broader impact.


Support innovative projects in hypertension awareness and prevention 

We will seek out examples of initiatives which we believe can be scaled further across Europe,through collaboration with national societies.


Support initiatives across global regions 

We will explore opportunities to work with and support other global regions where we believe we have the ability to do so.


Facilitate ongoing collaboration through regular meetings 

We have started regular meetings every six weeks, to ensure continuous progress.
