Announcement

Annual report 2008 now available in three languages

Published on 26 June 2009

EDCTP is pleased to present its annual report for 2008. The past year was a remarkable year as the results of our strategy for integrated projects became very much visible. Eight large integrated projects were signed in the areas of HIV vaccines, mother-to-child transmission of HIV and malaria in pregnancy. The Partnership grew as there was again a significant increase of both EDCTP Member State funding and contributions from third parties. In addition, the average number of Member States collaborating in EDCTP-funded clinical trials grew, while 71% of EDCTP-funded projects were led by African project coordinators based in sub-Saharan Africa. These are encouraging trends which underline the integration of EU research on PRDs, while encouraging African leadership in the fight against these diseases in the region.

The annual report is available in three languages: English (full report) and French and Portuguese (both in summary). If you wish to receive a paper copy, please forward your request to info[at]edctp.org.
