The European Toolkit for the Elimination of Viral Hepatitis in Prisons (EuroHePP) is now live – a practical resource to help prison health services across Europe scale up prevention, testing, treatment, and care for hepatitis B and C.
Commissioned by the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) and the European Union Drugs Agency (EUDA), and subcontracted through the University of Pisa, INHSU was engaged to write and develop the toolkit, working closely with both organisations and an expert advisory group.
INHSU was sub-contracted to:
- Develop the interactive framework
- Write all content based on latest evidence, research and best practice
- Incorporate feedback from the expert advisory group at every stage
- Provide input into the visual design to ensure usability and clarity
- Create a communications plan to promote the toolkit and support its uptake
This project shows our ability to take complex technical requirements and turn them into practical, user-friendly resources with global impact. Its success was built on genuine collaboration between all stakeholders, and we’re proud to have worked alongside ECDC and EUDA. We thank them for trusting us with this important work.
What’s inside the toolkit?
- Evidence-based guidance on prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and harm-reduction measures in prison environments
- An interactive framework to assess your current service provision and identify areas for improvement
- Practical tools to help you develop and implement strategies adapted to the needs and context of your setting
- Monitoring and evaluation components to track progress and measure impact over time

Interested in partnering with INHSU?
We work with governments, agencies, and NGOs worldwide to deliver training, resources, toolkits, and more that support evidence-based responses to hepatitis C, other infectious diseases, and the broader health and wellbeing of people who use drugs. If you’re looking for a trusted partner to help turn ideas into impact, we’d love to hear from you.
