AIDS Action Europe is happy to launch the call for trainee applications for its regional training for Southern European EU countries on affordability and pricing of medications.

The aim of the training is to build capacities of civil society organizations from the EU countries in South Europe for the advocacy on universal access to treatment and affordability and pricing of medications. The training will help civil society organizations to better understand how prices of medications are formed, what the legal barriers to affordable medications are and where civil society organizations can play a role in advocacy for reducing prices of medications and ensuring sustainable and affordable HIV and co-infections care and treatment services.

The training for the EU countries of Southern Europe (Cyprus, Greece, France, Italy, Malta, Portugal and Spain) will be conducted in Berlin, Germany – 19- 20 April, 2017.

The training is designed for activists who work in the advocacy field with special interest in pricing and affordability of medications. The language of training is English.
