OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
The project aims to collect, analyse, interpret
and disseminate data from national tuberculosis
notifications in each Member State of the European
Union and the countries of the European Region of
the World Health Organisation. Requirements for
pursuing this surveillance on a long term basis
were assessed, and possibility of exchanging and
disseminating other information relevant to the
epidemiology and the control of tuberculosis in
Europe were also explored. This surveillance
project intend to co-ordinate with potential EU
projects promoting the cooperation in the field of
tuberculosis surveillance, prevention and control
in Europe.

OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
Long term objective
The long term objective is to reduce antimicrobial
resistance in the European Community.
Short term objective
The short term objective is to establish a
permanent initiating, facilitating and
co-ordinating structure for Antimicrobial
resistance in Europe which will enable:
- the establishment of an
‘early warning system'
- surveillance of
antimicrobial resistance in the EU, including
evaluation of currently active national and
international antimicrobial surveillance
systems, including standardisation and
validation of antimicrobial resistance
susceptibility testing, as well as the
identification of risk factors for
antimicrobial resistance.
The achievement of these
objectives will provide information for use by
local laboratories and physicians, to support both
appropriate antibiotic use and also by national
governments and European authorities in
formulating policies on antibiotic use. Electronic
data and information transfer systems (INTERNET)
will be developed in order to achieve fast
automatic analysis of accumulated data and
subsequent feedback.

OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
Project aims to continue the European fellowship
training programme in applied epidemiological
methods for surveillance, information production,
public health action and control of infectious
diseases. The proposed programme consists of a
short-term theoretical course followed by a
long-term assignment devoted to practical
applications in national institutions, with a
mandatory period in a country different from the
country of origin of the candidate. In the
short-term, this course should provide suitable
training opportunities at identified national
institutions in charge of surveillance and control
of communicable diseases, and in medium-term, the
new human resources should develop into a European
network with similar experience to largely improve
the exchange of epidemiological information and
consolidate a network of European public health
epidemiologists
General objectives:
- To strengthen the
practices of public health, in particular in
the field of surveillance of infectious
diseases and clusters of public health
importance in EU Member States;
- To develop a European
network of public health epidemiologists with
an EU perspective, common objectives and
common methods;
- To develop a common
European response capacity to challenges in
the area of public health through enhanced
epidemiological research capabilities in the
field;
- Contribute to the
development of a true European surveillance
with a cross-BORDER=1 or even European-wide
response capacity for infectious disease or
environmental health threats in the E.U.
Educational objectives:
- After the training
epidemiologists were supposed to be able to:
- assume service
responsibilities in epidemiology;
- respond to clusters and
outbreaks of diseases;
- adequately communicate
the results of specific investigations to the
media, the decision makers and the scientific
community;
- keep the international
perspective in focus;
- influence decision makers
in public health.

OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
Project the main aims of which is to complete a
priority ranking of topics for collaboration in
the field of the surveillance of communicable
diseases between the Member States of the European
Board of National Surveillance Centres, with the
view to informing the future collaborative agenda.
Main objectives
- To undertake a consensus
exercise to determine the priority areas for
the collaboration at EU level in the field of
communicable disease surveillance, between
centres with responsibilities in communicable
disease surveillance at national levels;
- To deliver a list of
priorities based on consensus to the European
Commission.
The project uses the
knowledge and experience of national experts in a
consensus method adapted from the Delphi
technique. In this technique, consensus is reached
by means of questionnaire and feedback rounds
circulated among a group of experts; The method
retains anonimity and avoids the drawbacks of
committee settings such as domination or
coalition.

OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
Project the main aim of which is to establish a
European Network for concerted surveillance of
Alveolar Echinococcosis, six countries of the
European Union will be actively involved in the
project.
Main objectives:
- To collect reliable data
on epidemiology of alveolar echinococcosis.
- To monitor the follow-up
of patients using a common European
classifications scheme.
- To create the network
resources for conducting new multicentre
therapeutic trials.
- To facilitate
international staff exchanges, training of
physicians, surgeons, PhD students and
Post-Doctoral researchers.
- To support the goals of
the WHO Working Group on Echinococcosis.
Plan of work:
As AE is a rare but lethal and long-lasting
disease, a scientifically reliable collection of
all data concerning epidemiology of AE in Europe
will be of help to delineate the real importance
of AE for Public Health in European countries and
serve as a basis for future studies on the
relationship between animal infection and human
contamination and on the clinical management of
patients. The basic tools of this pilot project
will be two computerised registers for the
collection of human epidemiological and clinical
data on the one hand, and of the animal
epidemiological and ecological data on the other
hand. The two registers (A. Human aspects; B.
Animal and environmental aspects) will be
separated into 4 sub-registers, two for French
speaking countries or regions [A. in Besançon
(F); B. in Dijon (F)] and two for German speaking
countries or regions [A. in Ulm (D); B. in
Stuttgart-Hohenheim (D)]. Data from Switzerland
will be referred to either sub-registers depending
on language and/or convenience. In every country,
sub-centres will refer cases and data to the
sub-registers according to language convenience.
All the data will be translated into English
before the French and German sub-registers. All
the data will be translated into English before
the French and German sub-registers are combined.
Mobility of young physicians, surgeons or
scientists from all teams involved in the project
will help exchanges between clinical and research
teams on the one hand, and the registers on the
other hand.

OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
Project aiming at improving the effectiveness of
AIDS-information materials provided specifically
to those seafarers visiting EC ports.
The main objectives of the project was to identify
duplication and/or gaps in existing materials and
developing/updating/adapting low cost materials
where necessary and to strengthen collaboration
between key organisations for the delivery of
information programmes to seafarers. In addition,
the project comments on and makes recommendations
to the EC for extending this collaboration to
other Member States.
Global patterns of trade and the method of
recruiting ships crews ensured that non-EC owned,
flagged and crewed ships were drawn into this
project. Many of the vessels and people will
originate from those developing countries where
HIV is greatest and prevention resources are
limited. All seafarers are absent for very long
periods of time and many countries are unlikely to
be able to target such a migratory workforce. It
is proposed that the results of this project are
used as the basis for establishing links with
relevant key organisations in countries of origin.
The purpose of this would be to extend the use of
effective materials and good practice, and
increase the capability of the linked countries to
carry out prevention work for all seafarers
visiting their ports. |

des usagers de drogues désinsérés et
n'exigeant pas de leur part un engagement
dans une démarche d'arrêt de prise de
produit)à et les comparer avec celles émanant
des dispositifs équivalents implantés dans
un port de l'Europe du Nord: Dundee qui
tient lieu de "cas témoin".
- Situer les populations
d'usagers de drogues utilisatrices de
structures d'accueil à "bas
seuil" par rapport aux populations fréquentant
les centres de soins spécialisés
conventionnels. Chaque pays sera représenté
per un organisme spécialisé dans la prévention
et le soin de la toxicomanie disposant à la
fois d'une structure à bas seuil
d'exigence et d'une structure classique de
consultation.
- Rassembler les
intervenants spécialisés dans le domaine de
la toxicomanie de l'Europe du Sud en vue de
définir des outils d'objectivation de la
situation sanitaire des usagers de drogues les
plus marginalisés.
- Définir les conditions
de faisabilité de stratégies de réduction
des risques de contamination au VIH et aux hépatites
et de co-morbidité associées, adaptées aux
usagers de drogues utilisateurs des structures
"bas seuil" et utilisables par les
intervenants spécialisés en toxicomanie.
- Organiser un séminaire
de synthèse en vue de la diffusion des résultats
en Europe.

OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
Project aiming to analyse Border issues with
regard to HIV/AIDS, STDs and to develop
co-operative, border-crossing methods of
prevention. Issues relating to HIV transmission
are visible and are issues of public awareness and
discussion at several borders within the EU and
even more along the borders of the EU Member
States and the newly independent states of Central
and Eastern Europe. Measures responding to these
situations are rare. It is thus of interest for
the EU Member States to assess the situation in
Europe as a whole, to identify examples of good
practice, to create guidelines for reacting to
this situation and to develop bordercrossing
methods of prevention, to create new projects and
to evaluate them. A growing number of experts
working on the grass root level along the European
borders used the experience of SPI BERLIN as a
basis for planning and development of BORDER=1
crossing prevention activities. Pilot projects at
the borders of the countries involved were
developed and examples of good practice were
analysed.
In the second phase of the Umbrella Project, the
main task is to disseminate the experience of the
pilot project into various border regions
throughout Europe and to evaluate the use of the
methodology of border crossing social work in
these regions. |

OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
Project the main aims of which is make a
comparative survey on HIV/AIDS risk behaviours in
a population of young marginalised people in three
southern European cities.
Main Objectives:
The main objective of the project is to provide a
survey of HIV/AIDS drug or sex related risk
behaviours (unprotected sexual intercourses, drug
use, needles exchange, ....) in a sample of young
marginalised people (homeless, unemployed, those
suffering hardship) in three great southern
European cities (Rome, Madrid, Athens). These
people are "distant" from services and
difficult to reach for information/prevention
campaigns; they're supposed to adopt HIV/AIDS
risk behaviours as they try to overcome economical
needs through illegal activities (drug pushing,
often involving addiction too, prostitution). The
research is therefore aimed at inquiring their:
- HIV/AIDS and STD's risk
behaviours, and their motivation (as related
to social and personal condition);
- knowledge about such
diseases' ways of transmission and
preventive measures.
This survey, comparing
different situation in three EU countries, will be
helpful in planning and evaluating specific
prevention programmes targeting young people.

OBJECTIFS
ET CONTENU DU PROJET:
Projet pilote de prévention du VIH/sida destiné
au développement et à la finalisation d'un
outil interactif de communication,
sensibilisation, information et d'éducation à
la santé et simultanément d'investigation et
d'évaluation, orienté selon un axe de prévention
primaire et secondaire à la fois vers le grand
public, notamment les jeunes, et les groupes les
plus exposés.
Objectifs:
Mise en place du dispositif en France puis en
Belgique au sein d'un réseau de plusieurs sites
de proximité accueillant des jeunes de niveaux
socio-éducatifs contrastés et de parcours
multiples, a priori exposés à des risques hétérogènes
(sexuels, usage de drogue par intraveineuse,
etc...). Cette phase de finalisation multisite de
l'outil, menée en étroite collaboration avec
ses futurs utilisateurs appartenant à divers
groupes cibles ainsi que les intervenants de ces
actions de prévention - et les équipes de
recherche partenaires du projet - a donné lieu
notamment à des échanges suivis
d'informations, d'expériences et de compétence
entre les différents acteurs (cibles et
intervenants) de ce projet de Recherche/Action.
L'objectif final de ce projet pilote est la mise
en réseau - susceptible de constituer à terme un
véritable observatoire télématique
"sentinelle" - d'un outil attractif et
innovant, à la fois d'intervention et
d'investigation, dédié à la prévention du
VIH/sida. L'enquête statistique anonyme intégrée
au dispositif permet le recueil auprès de
diverses catégories de consultants de données
quantitatives et qualitatives - strictement
anonymes - concernant les connaissances,
croyances, comportements, pratiques, attitudes
vis-à-vis du risque ainsi que l'évaluation de
la perception individuelle et collective de ce
risque et le suivi évolutif de ces indices. Ceci
permettra, à terme, d'établir pour les différents
groupes cibles concernés une véritable
cartographie dynamique autorisant un suivi
longitudinal, notamment de l'effet des diverses
stratégies préventives mises en oeuvre, dans la
perspective d'optimiser des actions de prévention
ciblée. |

OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
Main Objectives:
- To document information
relating to HIV/AIDS public education
campaigns in Europe and to provide a resource
for use by policy makers.
- To compare and contrast
the experiences of Member States - identifying
key programmatic factors which may lead to
more successful implementation.
- To explore the extent to
which lessons learnt in one Member State have
relevance for others, and for other European
countries.
- To facilitate the
selection and implementation of effective
preventive strategies.
- To disseminate the
conclusions in a policy relevant form.
The project ‘AIDS Public
Education in Europe: Information Exchange'
centrally supports actions c11-13 of the programme
of the prevention of AIDS and certain other
communicable diseases and furthers the specific
objective of the Community Action Plan in relation
to AIDS' to help to increase awareness and
improve public information and education and
provide, including with regard to the early
detection of communicable diseases, better
training for health professionals and relevant
personnel'. A strong indication of need for
exchange of experience in the field of AIDS Public
Education became clear in the response to the
first phase of this project. This was the first
systematised attempt to explore to what extent
interventions transfer from one context to
another.
With the move towards
European unity it is no longer practicable to
assess health promotional activities solely on
national basis. The opening up of Eastern and
Central Europe presents further opportunities for
experiences to be shared. A major focus for the
work of this project lies in drawing parallels and
exposing differences between country specific
initiatives and their outcomes in order to
identify key predictive variables in the success
and failure of aspects of campaigns.

OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
Project aiming at developing a neural expert
system (NES) for predicting AIDS risk perception
in various segments of population.
Main objectives:
Development of a computerised system which can be
consulted by people involved in planning
prevention strategies about AIDS. The system will
be a repository of knowledge on how persons
perceive risk about AIDS and will be an important
piece of information in planning strategies of
prevention. The final product will be a neural
expert system which will run under Windows and
will be user-friendly in the consultation.
The neural expert system
will give reliable estimates of perceived risk
about AIDS in various segments of populations but
more importantly will permit simulations. It will
answer questions such as "What will be the
impact on the perception of risk of HIV
transmission if we change the attitude X or the
behaviour Y?"

OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
Project aiming at developing methods to reduce the
risks of HIV infection among African communities
and their social networks/contacts in EU
countries.
Main objectives:
- To develop a social map
of the sub-Saharan African communities in
Europe, key migration routes (internal and
external) and the main-European communication
and social networks.
- To carry out pilot
actions in two EU countries, France and UK,
linking community-based health promotion
activities in Europe with similar activities
in selected African countries (e.g. Uganda,
Mali).
- To launch a-European
network of African community organisations
able to deliver effective HIV/AIDS prevention
work, health promotion and safe sex education.
- To identify and develop
models of collaboration between public health
authorities and community organisations in the
context of HIV/AIDS infection and notification
which are applicable to sexually transmitted
and other infectious diseases (e.g.
tuberculosis, hepatitis). In other words, to
tackle specific issues affecting African
communities - e.g. late presentation for
diagnosis and treatment, and social exclusion
of those with AIDS - using methods which are
typical of African communities and can
therefore be applied to other infectious
diseases.

OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
Project the main aims of which is the training in
the development, implementation and evaluation of
AIDS public education initiatives.
Main Objectives:
To provide a mechanism by which those working in
the field of AIDS public education may assist
those less experienced in developing and
evaluating AIDS Public education initiatives.
To provide training and support to:
- develop skill using paid
and unpaid media,
develop skills working with journalists,
develop research and evaluation skills.
To disseminate the stock of
knowledge on evaluation of AIDS public education.
The project will provide intensive customised
training to key personnel in three priority
cities:
Needs assessment will be conducted in one pilot
country to determine:
- the extent of resources
available for AIDS Public education,
size and nature of the epidemic,
existing working arrangements and
organisational support,
the cultural and political context in the
country.
The needs assessment will
permit the tailoring of the training modules to
the particular circumstances of the country.
Concurrently a training program will be developed
compromising core training in:
- developing public
education initiatives
working with journalists
research and evaluation
Additional Modules will be
selected according to key criteria:
- the cultural and
political climate
- the nature and scale of
the epidemic and the groups affected
- the availability of
technical resources and existing expertise and
experience in running public education
initiatives.
A training manual will be
produced for use during the training days. In
addition a video will be produced comprising a
selection of TV spots from around Europe,
illustrating particular themes of relevance and
their application of specific target groups.
Developing and evaluating AIDS public education
initiatives is still a relatively new area of
health education activity. The requirement for
more systematic and targeted training in the
development, implementation and evaluation of AIDS
public education clearly exists amongst many
Central/Eastern and Southern European countries.
The Health Authority has over ten years experience
of doing this work in the UK and the London School
of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine has many years
experience in training people from around the
world in health education and epidemiology. This
combined expert knowledge base is a valuable
resource for countries with limited experience of
AIDS public education.

OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
Project aiming at creating training and education
guidelines that facilitate greater involvement and
leadership of seropositive persons and people with
AIDS (PWA/HIV) in Southern Europe, not only in
AIDS programs but in the full context of the HIV
epidemic. Such leadership, evident in the
countries of Northern Europe, offers significant
benefits in the fight against AIDS, particularly
in the following areas :
- self-help groups for
PWA/HIV (persons with AIDS or HIV) that
provide not only psychological support, but
that also promote personal autonomy and social
activism;
- stronger influence with
public and private health institutions,
benefiting the development of medical
research, health and social services and
public policy;
- more accurate public
images of seropositive persons, which increase
self-esteem among PWA/HIV, encourage the
reduction of passivity in self-care, and
reduce discrimination against seropositive
persons.
The project articulates

OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
Project the main aim of which is to target family
members , friends and partners of people living
with HIV in order to offer informative, emotional
and practical support.
Main objective is a training programme for 32 key
persons among staff and volunteers from 8
different Red Cross National Societies of the EU,
based on the Noah's Ark model of support and
care targeting families, friends and partners of
people living with HIV/AIDS. The training
programme shall help the 32 Red Cross staff and
volunteers to meet these needs by offering
education and counselling.
Secondly to supervise these key persons when they
implement the model in their own countries
according to national situation. As a result we
estimate that in 1999: 3200 relatives, friends and
partners of HIV positives will be educated and
emotionally supported by the key persons. The well
being of these 3200 persons will increase and they
will create networks in their surroundings and
thus increase the understanding of HIV/AIDS in
society as well as reduce irrational fear and
prejudices which otherwise might provoke
discrimination of HIV positives. |

OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
Project the main aims of which is the evaluation
of guided group programmes for people with
HIV/AIDS and the creation of a network of
therapists in Spain, Italy and Germany.
Main Objectives:
- Evaluation of
guided self-help group programmes commonly
used in AIDS-Help organisations as regards
their effect on psychological and physical
variables, development of a European
multicultural new concept of guided self help
group programmes.
- Establishment of
indications for different groups like
homosexuals, drugusers, women and improvement
of the established programmes at the AIDS-help
organisations on the basis of a handbook on
group therapy.
- Increase of
co-operation, exchange of expertise and
scientific results between large self-help
organisations in Italy, Spain, and Germany.
Therapy groups take
place in the centres, accompanied by regular
supervision, local and international meetings of
the therapist and the responsible persons for the
study. The training of the therapists is continued
and concurrently 200 people with HIV/AIDS are
examined with an age range from about 18 to 60.
Each group contains about 10 persons. Every centre
should run about three groups and have about 16
meetings per group. The group members are examined
at 4 different times through questionnaires and
interviews. The examinations times are four weeks
before treatment (T1), at the beginning of the
treatment (T2), at the end of the treatment (T3)
and 12 weeks later (T4). Furthermore the
participants keep a weekly diary from T1 to T3.
The data collected from T1 to T2 serves as a
baseline measurement. This time span might be
expanded to three months. The data will be used to
control the results for the data collected during
the intervention (T2 and T3) and the follow-up
time from T3 and T4. The monitoring, the
evaluation and the input of data is done parallel
to this.

OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
After assessment of the results of the three
previous phases of production of the ‘Directory
of European Community AIDS Service
Organisations' a third phase was implemented in
order to:
- encourage and
support the sharing of information and
expertise on HIV/AIDS throughout Europe;
- enable
communication and co-operation between those
involved in the fight against AIDS in Europe.
The European AIDS
Directory provides:
- information on
specific expertise in HIV and AIDS work both
at national and European level;
- key contacts in
all nations and regions of Europe, enabling
further local referral.
The project
consisted in researching, translating, publishing
and distributing a new European AIDS Directory and
a new European AIDS Database. The directory was
extensively indexed so that all areas of expertise
and special interest in HIV and AIDS work were
clearly described. Such areas of expertise include
treatments work; immigration and migration;
information and documentation; clinical research;
and work with particularly affected communities.
These categories formed the principal search tools
for the Database. Although the principal focus of
both resources were national and regional
organisations with special expertise, it also
includes detailed regional and local listings. The
directory has been published as one multi-lingual
edition in English, French, German, Italian and
Spanish. The database is operable in any of these
five languages.
