Our Network
- hepCoalition (https://www.hepcoalition.org/en/) – hepCoalition.org is conceived as a tool to support the development of a global advocacy movement on access to hepatitis C diagnostics, treatment and support for people living with and at high risk for HCV in low- and middle-income countries, and particularly people who use drugs and people living with HIV/HCV. hepCoalition also provides updated World Health Organization (WHO) and other partner organizations’ publications and resources on HCV treatment and diagnosis, and past and upcoming national, regional and international HCV-related events.
- mapCrowd (https://mapcrowd.org/) – mapCrowd is an online crowdsourcing platform designed to compile and publicize updated in-country information on HCV. By providing free access to national, regional, and international data, the mapCrowd database allows users to draw visual comparisons between countries, using interactive graphs, tables, and maps. Users can download the mapCrowd database in CSV format for their own analysis.
- Treatment Action Group (https://www.treatmentactiongroup.org) – Treatment Action Group (TAG) is an independent, activist, and community-based research and policy think tank committed to racial, gender, and LGBTQ+ equity; social justice; and liberation, fighting to end HIV, tuberculosis (TB), and hepatitis C virus (HCV). Treatment Action Group (TAG) envisions the end of the HIV, tuberculosis (TB), and hepatitis C (HCV) pandemics with the discovery, development, and worldwide dissemination of safe and effective diagnostics, preventives, and cures through public health structures that end systemic harms and promote human rights, and that are developed by the diverse communities most affected by these conditions. This vision will be realized based on data and science, and achieved through community engagement, distributive justice, and equitable access to the benefits of science.
