The Palliative Care in Central and Eastern Europe and Former Soviet Union (CEE & FSU) Countries Monthly Email Newsletter
This monthly Newsletter that will cover palliative care activities in the countries of CEE & FSU in English and Russian, is developed by the Hungarian Hospice-Palliative Association, with the support of the Open Society Institute Network Public Health Program’s International Palliative Care Initiative and the European Association for Palliative Care.
The goal is to communicate the activities, diversity, challenges and progress being made in palliative care development, to foster networking, communication in Central and Eastern Europe and Former Soviet Union, and also to inform those throughout the world about the regional effort.

Topics to be covered:
- advocacy for palliative care
- fundraising activities
- announcements on newly received funding
- case studies on successful examples of working with the media
- activities on educating the public
- progress in palliative care policy development

The ultimate goal is to contribute to the development of care of the patients and families suffering with serious life-threatening illnesses. We can not achieve our goals without your active participation.
