On December 17th from 10:00 till 11:30 on the Eve of International Migrants Day, the Regional Expert Group on Migration and Health will host an online meeting on the eve of the International Migrants Day “Development of migrant communities in European countries in the context of health of key populations”
The meeting will present the experience of organizations providing assistance to refugees and migrants in terms of HIV and other diseases. People in migration often change their country of residence due to circumstances, as a result they may lose access to HIV therapy and treatment. One of the challenges is to maintain migrats’ access to treatment throughout the entire migration route.
The meeting will discuss solutions for maintaining the sustainability of services needed by refugees and migrants in the EECA region, and will also present an analysis of the development of migrant communities in Europe.
