Sustainability Pillars
Partner contributions
The ‘Co-financing’ of EUPATI provided by the private and public partners can take the form of both, ‘in-kind’ contributions, or direct financial contributions and can be provided on the central level (EUPATI International) as well as at the national level (EUPATI National Platforms).
Fee-for-service trainings
Seeking to expand the scope of EUPATI to training for all stakeholders — including pharmaceutical industry, other health-related industry, academia, regulators and HTA bodies – as fee-for-service training/courses about patient engagement. The target groups are professionals working in a) patient relations/engagement management and b) in operational roles looking to engage patients.
Projects funding/grants
EUPATI participates regularly in calls for projects by e.g. IMI, the European Commission, EIT Health and other funding bodies, and has several ongoing projects. EUPATI’s role in these projects focuses on patient education and training.
