The PERCH project (PartnERship to Contrast HPV) brings together 18 European countries and 34 partner organisations with the aim of contributing to the implementation of Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan.
PERCH is in line with the World Health Organisation’s (WHO) ’90-70-90′ strategy, which aims to achieve at least 90 per cent HPV vaccination coverage among girls, and potentially boys, by the age of 15.
The objectives of the project are: (i) improve the capacities of Member States to plan and implement HPV vaccination campaigns by sharing knowledge and experience; (ii) improve the data and monitoring system on HPV vaccination and screening; (iii) improve knowledge and awareness on HPV-related disease and prevention in specific target groups (girls and adolescents); (iv) improve the knowledge and capacities of healthcare professionals in HPV vaccine communication.
