EATG<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\"\"On 23 January 2023 the EATG\u2019s HIV and Mental Health Platform went live. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

This new online\u00a0space is intended to foster collaboration and experience exchange across Europe and Central Asia in addressing the mental health needs of people living with and vulnerable to HIV.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

EATG has been prioritising mental health and HIV since early 2020. This previous work shone a light on mental health within HIV prevention, support, treatment and care\u00a0across Europe and Central Asia. In doing so, it expanded EATG\u2019s engagement on HIV and mental health to a wider range of stakeholders.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Platform is the next major step in this process. The Platform will have three main aims:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
    \n
  1. To promote implementation of EATG\u2019s recommendations on HIV and mental\u00a0health.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. To share good practice in providing mental health and psychosocial services to people living with and vulnerable to HIV, especially relative to community-based and lay or non-professional services..<\/li>\n
  3. To support the development of the first European Conference on HIV and mental health (tentatively scheduled for early 2024).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n
    \n

    The Platform will explore key ways to ensure a more effective continuum of care as\u00a0PLHIV move between community-based, primary, secondary and tertiary levels of\u00a0mental health systems. <\/span><\/p>\n

    The resulting discussion is expected to further the process of clarifying a framework for mental health task sharing across community, healthcare and\u00a0specialist levels in the HIV field, with focus on under-served populations and Europe\u2019s\u00a0sub-regional differences. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    The Platform will be accessible in 10 European languages in addition to English: Croatian, French, German, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian,\u00a0Spanish, Turkish and Ukrainian.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
