Welcome to CEVHAP

Welcome to CEVHAP

The Coalition to Eradicate Viral Hepatitis in Asia Pacific (CEVHAP) was established in October 2010 as a multidisciplinary body to advocate for public policy reforms that reduce the burden of viral hepatitis in Asia-Pacific.

CEVHAP is the first organisation based in the Asia Pacific region to dedicate its efforts to this cause.

The organisation is committed to building partnerships with others who share the same goals including: governments, NGOs, the business sector, academic researchers, civil society and people themselves who are infected.

Viral hepatitis - It's closer than you think. One million people die from viral hepatitis in Asia Pacific every year.  On WORLD HEPATITIS DAY CEVHAP urges governments to embrace WHO’s new Global Framework for Action.             >> READ MORE

NOhep is a global, grassroots movement aimed at bringing all stakeholders together to eliminate viral hepatitis by 2030. It has been developed to create global awareness of the disease, similar to the red ribbon for HIV/AIDS, and was launched in 2016. NOhep firmly positions itself at the forefront of the elimination conversation, showcasing exemplary leadership, fostering on-the-ground innovative solutions and taking action to support the policy changes needed to eliminate this cancer-causing illness by 2030. Being a part of NOhep means being part of the solution. (To find out more about the development of this exciting initiative, watch this short video: https://youtu.be/Oer-rGwnKZU
