Soniodd Gweinidogion Ewrop (o Wlad Groeg, yr Eidal, Portiwgal ac Iwerddon), ynghyd â siaradwyr o sefydliadau rhyngwladol, gan gynnwys Sefydliad Iechyd y Byd, y Comisiwn Ewropeaidd, a'r Sefydliad Cydweithredu a Datblygu Economaidd, y modd y byddant yn mynd i'r afael â chlefydau cronig.  Roedd nifer o bethau cyffredin wedi dod i'r amlwg, fel canolbwyntio mwy ar ganlyniadau iechyd, dulliau ataliol a chanfod problemau cyn gynted ag y bo modd, a hunan-reoli ac ailgyfeirio gwasanaethau at ddarpariaeth gwasanaethau gofal sylfaenol. Y thema fawr arall oedd yr angen am ddull trawslywodraethol o weithredu yn achos iechyd a llesiant.
European Ministers (from Greece, Italy, Portugal and Ireland), as well as speakers from international organisations including the World Health Organisation (WHO), the European Commission and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), set out their approaches to tackling chronic diseases. Many common threads emerged, such as an increased focus on health outcomes, on prevention and early detection, and on self-management and reorientation towards primary care. The other major theme was the need for a cross-governmental approach to health and wellness.
