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.

WORLD HEPATITIS DAY The World Health Assembly's Resolution on Viral Hepatitis (WHA63.18) recognised, for the first time, viral hepatitis as a global health issue and designated 28 July 2011 as the inaugural World Hepatitis Day. >> READ MORE

estimated 600,000 dying each year . . .
  The number of people with chronic
hepatitis C and more advanced liver
disease or cirrhosis, is projected to
increase by 38% between 2006 and 2015
unless the number of people being

approximately 80% of patients who are
able to complete recommended
treatment, are cured . . .
