| OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
The main objective of the project Euro TB is the continuation of a system of collection, analysis and publication of data on tuberculosis (TB) notifications in Europe. The project is the prolongation of the one-year feasibility study followed by the establishment of a routine surveillance system during the second year with the Directorate General V of the Commission of the European Communities). The second objective of the project is the initiation of a system of collection, analysis and publication of data on resistance to antituberculosis drugs. The situation of drug resistance surveillance (DRS) is very heterogeneous in Europe since only a few countries have a national surveillance system. The feasibility study currently conducted by EuroTB is expected to result in a proposal for a European system of data collection on antiTB drug resistance based on common definitions and principles. |

| OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
Research carried out by The Alliance and supported by the Dept. of Health with the co-operation of the Irish Advisor and the EU Commissioner, has found that NGOs in Ireland, Spain, Portugal, Greece and Italy have had a consistently low participation rate in the Community Action Programme for the Prevention of AIDS, both as initiators and as partners. Also, by the time information on funded projects is available, it is usually too late for other organisations to participate as partners in them. As there is increasing emphasis in funding criteria on large-scale projects, these same countries are likely to be increasingly marginalised as they may not have sufficient resources. This project aims to establish a pilot network of NGOs from these countries aimed at improving their participation as lead or partner organisations. The aims of the pilot network are to :

| OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
The overall objective is to generate interest, exchange experience and continue the information process about HIV and AIDS in a European context. Rooted in Nordic co-operation and experience, focus will be on prevention, medical treatment, medical research and options for people infected with HIV or diagnosed as having AIDS. By making the disease visible, we minimise the risk of discrimination and optimise the basis for providing information about the disease, how it is transmitted etc. With broad European representation in this specific area, the aim is for the project to contribute to the development of new models/methods of European co-operation based on work between the voluntary organisations and dialogue between strategic and operational levels. The aim of exchanging and processing experience is to guarantee that further work with HIV and AIDS within the European Union will be able to profit from the synergy created by such co-operation. |

| OBJECTIVES
AND CONTENTS OF THE PROJECT:
To demonstrate the concept of the Safer Sex Caravan, which has proved a very successful information tool in Denmark, to AIDS-organizations assembled at the XII International Conference on HIV and AIDS in Geneva. To share with them our experience in the area of aids-information, and to learn from their of doing things. After the Conference we will conduct a tour of a part of Southern Europe - in close cooperation with local aids-organizations - to show how effective and versatile a mobile information unit can be - and, by our very presence, demonstrate that control of HIV is not only of national concern, but is a pan-European problem that has the attention of the leadership of the European Community. The local organisations intimate knowledge of their regions will ensure that the Caravan will be used to maximum efficiency in the various areas we visit. The very high-profile Caravan will be a remainder that there is a lethal sexual disease around, and that the only protection against it is knowledge, care and condoms. |
