Mission & Interests

Goals: EuroTEST provides a European platform for information exchange and activities to improve early diagnosis and care of HIV, Viral Hepatitis, Sexually Transmitted Infections and Tuberculosis. The EuroTEST initiative is involved in various projects and collaborations within infectious disease testing and linkage to care with partners throughout Europe. The overall objective of EuroTEST is to ensure that people living with HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STIs or TB have access to testing and enter care earlier in the course of their infection than is currently the case, as well as to study the decrease in the proportion presenting late for care. The EuroTEST initiative is governed by an independent Steering Committee (SC). The conditions of funding the initiative are approved by the SC. Industry sponsors are not part of the SC and do not have any influence on the projects and initiatives implemented by EuroTEST.
