Join the International Network on Health, Hepatitis, and Substance Use (INHSU) for a symposium focusing on the practical aspects of implementing interventions for hepatitis C virus (HCV).

Hear from local and national experts on what works in real-world settings, including best practice models of care, cross-sector collaboration and strategies to reduce stigma and improve engagement and treatment outcomes.

The program is implementation science informed and will provide actionable tools to support linkage to care, and strengthen service delivery.

Why is this symposium needed?

While HCV treatment is now highly effective, challenges remain in reaching and supporting people at risk or living with HCV. This symposium focuses on strengthening and scaling HCV testing and treatment services, within the realities of different settings.

Who should attend?

Designed for anyone working with people who use drugs, this event offers practical tools, real world insights and opportunities to network. Attendees include doctors, nurses, frontline and peer workers, program managers, researchers, NSP staff, pharmacists, and policymakers from a variety of settings.

After attending this event, you will be able to:

Identify areas for enhancing or scaling up in your own HCV service delivery

Understand how a variety of interventions work

Analyse possible barriers to implementing interventions and how to overcome them using process mapping

Understand how to improve HCV care pathways and support your state’s progress toward HCV elimination
