English Abstract The objectives of this 'Planning Meeting' were to
discuss the work programme of the project and to identify the relevant
issues to be addressed and activities to be carried out during the first
year of the research project. The main targets of the Working Groups to be
reached during the first year of the project were formulated. 1). The
epidemiologists will focus their attention on HIV data, subclassified for
relevant subepidemics, to establish an epidemiological analysis of the
HIV/AIDS epidemic in Europe. 2). The economists will update the scenarios
on health care for HIV infected persons and will integrate this study with
results from the project on Managing the Costs of HIV Infection. In
addition a comparative study will be made by analyzing available databases
on care for HIV infected patients. Starting from these activities a
framework for a 'baseline analytical' approach will be formulated. 3). The
social scientists will concentrate on two themes, dealing with *care and
support and *prevention and intervention. 4). The modellers proposed to
review the available techniques for future studies on the spread of HIV and
to consider possibilities to work within the EU Concerted Action with one
general modelling approach.
