PrEP in Europe was a partnership of eight European NGOs aiming to improve knowledge of, provision of, and access to PrEP throughout the World Health Organization European region.

Active between 2016 and 2021, it convened two pan-European summits in Amsterdam in 2018 and Warsaw in 2019, produced research briefs and conducted webinars and community meetings on PrEP for different European populations.

PrEP in Europe dissolved as a partnership in September 2021, having helped to achieve its primary stated aim of furthering the availability of PrEP in a majority of countries in Europe.

All PrEP in Europe's conference presentations and webinars are available on the PrEP in Europe YouTube channel. Reports from the 2018 summit and 2019 summit are available on aidsmap.com.

News, discussion and announcements continue to be shared on the PrEP in Europe Facebook page.
