COBATEST participated on July 27-29 at the CORE mid-term meeting in Berlin hosted by Aids Action Europe. The CORE project (Community Response to End Inequalities) aims to reduce inequalities in the HIV, TB and viral hepatitis responses that have proven key in reaching communities that have been traditionally underserved by mainstream prevention and healthcare services. As the first 18 months of the project have passed, the work packages and implementing partners updated each other on the progress of the work done, challenges, and expectations for the next 18 months.
