Hep-C Community Summit

BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN RESEARCH, HARM REDUCTION, TREATMENT AND PEOPLE LIVING WITH HEPATITIS C

Hepatitis C is an easy disease to treat. Elimination is possible with the necessary political will. Harm reduction and community services play a crucial role in this setting.

The 3rd Hepatitis Community Summit will discuss these issues and bring together researchers, health and community workers, medical staff and HCV patients and advocates.

The meeting is organised by Correlation – European Harm Reduction Network in cooperation with the European Union funded Eurosider project, which is coordinated by the French research institute INSERM. The main objective of the Eurosider Project is to contribute to a better Hepatitis C policy and practice by developing the transferability of an effective community-based intervention to people who inject drugs in different political contexts with the aim to reduce the risk of HIV-HCV transmission.
