EATG’s mission is to achieve the fastest possible access to state of the art medical products, devices and diagnostic tests that prevent or treat HIV infection or improve the quality of life of people living with HIV, or who are at risk of HIV infection.

In responding to HIV, EATG also considers diseases frequently seen as co-infection in people with HIV, as well as other health issues that increase the risk of HIV.

EATG’s primary geographic focus is the member states served by the World Health Organisation (WHO) Regional Office for Europe. However, EATG does consider opportunities to collaborate with and support similar efforts in other parts of the world.
