date:  20/06/2019

The project "European Surveys and Training to Improve MSM Community Health" funded by the 3rd EU Health Programme is holding a Dissemination workshop hosted by DG SANTE in Luxembourg on 19 June 2019 back to back with the EU HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis and Tuberculosis Think Tank and Civil Society Forum meetings.

Agenda of this event will provide participants with an opportunity to have a close look to the aims, methods and key achievements across the three main outcomes of the project, namely:

  1. European online survey among MSM (EMIS 2017)
  2. Online survey about knowledge, attitudes, practices, and training needs of community health workers providing services for MSM in the EU and neighbouring countries (ECHOES).
  3. Development and pilot testing of a training programme for MSM-focused community health workers (ESTICOM TRAININGS).

Participants include a variety of stakeholders from national authorities, academia, clinicians, civil society organizations, as well as representatives from the EU HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis and Tuberculosis Think Tank and Civil Society Forum. They will discuss ways for maximising the utility of key learning's from ESTICOM and sustaining those benefits over time.
