M-Care empowers advocates and treatment activists working with migrants with the skills and tools necessary to foster greater involvement of their communities in the provision of healthcare services. This includes facilitating timely and appropriate access to testing and treatment initiatives, research, early access programs etc as well helping to fight stigma and discrimination relating to HIV, HCV, and TB and other health conditions.

EUPATI - European Patients' Academy - Finished

The European Patients’ Academy on Therapeutic Innovation (EUPATI) is a multi-stakeholder public-private partnership originally launched by the IMI-EUPATI project (2012-2017) and hosted by the European Patients’ Forum (EPF) from 2017 to 2020. EUPATI is today established as an independent Foundation in the Netherlands. It is a successful programme that provides education and training to increase the capacity and capability of patients and patient representatives to understand and meaningfully contribute to medicines research and development (R&D), and to improve the availability of medical information for patients and other stakeholders. It does so by conducting its established Patient Expert Training Course which has trained more than 150 patient experts (EUPATI Fellows), and with 60 more enrolled currently in the Course. In addition, EUPATI provides an open-access multilingual Toolbox that has served more than 4 million users around the world to date.

Four experienced and dedicated trainers from Russia, Germany and UK with great expertise in HIV, TB and HCV have delivered the training sessions and presentations.
