Our speaker, Sergey Golovin from Treatment Preparedness Coalition will talk about:

  • a brief overview of HIV treatment access issues in EECA
  • selected civil society interventions to improve access to treatment including:
    • drug procurement and provision monitoring projects (tracking and reacting to drug stock-outs, market analysis)
    • promoting use of TRIPS flexibilities to improve access
  • a brief overview of the TRIPS flexibilities available in EECA region and selected regional initiatives in this field.

The webinar will also include a discussion on whether some of the civil society interventions to improve treatment access in EECA could be of value in EU.
