Goals / Remit
The Nobody Left Outside initiative is a collective of dynamic organisations representing some of Europe's most marginalised and underserved groups, including LGBTQ+ , sex workers, migrants, people experiencing homelessness, people who inject drugs (PWID), and prisoners. United under the banner ‘Nobody Left Outside’, we are working together to identify common challenges, share lessons learned through years of community engagement, and seek integrated solutions to improve access to healthcare for the communities of people we represent. The NLO members represent and support underserved communities in nearly all 53 WHO European Region countries, both directly and through their national members spread across the region.

NLO has been granted the status of a 2019 Thematic Network under the EU Health Policy Platform, run by the European Commission.
https://webgate.ec.europa.eu/hpf/network/access
The goals of the NLO Thematic Network are:
• Identify common challenges and good practices
• Generate evidence to inform change
• Incubate practical guidance and innovative solutions toward equity of access to integrated health and social services
• Help the EU to better support Member States to achieve the SDG 2030 commitments to public health
Thematic Networks aim to produce a Joint Statement and policy recommendations, and to engage a broader community of interested stakeholders to pool knowledge and experience and to garner endorsement. Core priorities for the NLO Joint Statement will be empowering patients and increasing the ‘desire to care’ amongst cross-sector stakeholders, through effective governance, workforce education and data collection and monitoring. The Joint Statement was presented at the annual meeting of the EU Health Policy Platform (October 2019).
In 2020, the NLO Thematic Network has been transformed into a Stakeholder Network and continues its work at the EU Health Policy Platform.Member organisations
