WAC Europe

Europe has a wide and diverse range of HIV service providers ranging in size and scope. It also has special interest groups such as the AIDS and Mobility project; and the European AIDS Treatment Group plus acting as the base for some international groups such as GNP+ and ICW.

Despite the richness in experience and knowledge of the many groups establishing national and pan-European collaboration has been challenging. The earliest vehicle for greater collaboration was Eurocaso, part of the ICASO network. Recently this has been replaced by the creation of AIDS Action Europe (AAE) which now represents Europe at the ICASO meetings but was originally formed to create a voice at the European level aimed at the European Union’s internal policies on HIV at a time when the membership of the European Union was rapidly increasing.

At the country level there has been an increasing level of collaboration on advocacy and campaigning, particularly in response to the needs of communities in the Global South. This collaboration can take many different forms and in many instances may result from an agreement by a domestic HIV organisation to work with one or more international development agencies on fundraising, public awareness, joint advocacy and campaigning or a combination of any or all from this list.
