Final conclusions. ✓ Even when the above presented are hypothetical and long-term scenarios, the results show very clear trends regarding possible results. While it is true that medicines procurement is not the only decisive factor to assess the access to medicines, the prices payed by the State make it a crucial variable in the access to treatment. ✓ Both in the estimation of the fu- ture impact of the 17 current API and in the ones that may enter the market through 2050, and in the current additional cost for those 6 API, there is evidence of the exponential increase in the cost of medicines procured by the Ministry of Health. This may jeopardize the future sustainab- ility of the access to medicines.
Final conclusions. Although PrEP awareness varies from the study-to-study, ranging from 26% of MSM in the 2014 Xxxxxx Family Foundation survey (19) to 74% in this current study, there is more work to be done to increase awareness. Scaling up PrEP in a way that all those eligible have access is essential to addressing the current HIV epidemic. Developing a national strategy could help improve access to PrEP. Through this national effort, along with increased funding for free or low-cost PrEP, resources could be made available to target facilities where eligible, at-risk MSM are engaging in healthcare, such as primary care facilities. This national strategy needs to be developed and implemented in a way that facilitates access to PrEP for all eligible persons, in order to allow for maximum impact in preventing HIV in the United States. It is essential PrEP is scaled up in a way that will not allow the disparities in HIV to worsen. However, if PrEP remains accessible to only those who can afford the medication, the gaps will inevitability widen.

Final conclusions. In general, two conducted satisfaction surveys, one for the call applicants and one for the external reviewers, revealed that most of respondents were satisfied with the procedures for the preparing and submitting the call applications and with the following evaluation process of the submitted proposals. According to the majority of responses, the call was announced widely enough and early in advance, allowing sufficient time for the proposal preparation. Generally, the call applicants were better informed about call opening than the external reviewers. Most of respondents agreed that the call details and requirements as well as eligibility criteria were described clearly and comprehensively, and were easy to find on the ARICE website. ARICE data policy was generally acceptable for all applicants. The specific terms of access were described comprehensively according to the majority of reviewers albeit a part of applicants indicated problems with some specific issues. However, terms of access were defined by the vessel technical and operational capabilities and could not be adjusted on demand for different users. The support by vessel operators was highly regarded. The proposal template and requested information were generally found appropriate and well explained in the submission documents. A few critical remarks referred to detailed information that was required but could be difficult to know precisely without prior knowledge of the exact route or timing of the cruise. Most of respondents agreed that the online submission system was well documented by the provided guidelines. However, some applicants complained that the information in the system could not be easily edited. Two ARICE webinars related to the ship-time calls were offered but only a small share of respondents received information about available training. The proposal writing webinar was generally found more helpful than the pre-cruise preparation one but generally only very few applicants participated in the ARICE webinars. Therefore, dissemination of information on available trainings should be improved in future calls and they should be perhaps more oriented towards questions and topics, suggested by potential participants. Eligibility criteria and the choice and details (weighting) of Scientific Evaluation criteria were found adequate, fair and efficient to assess different qualities of the proposals by most of the external reviewers. The support from the Project and Evaluation offices wa...

Final conclusions. In general it can be argued that trade and tax regimes have evolved sepa- rately. WTO is encroaching on Members’ tax policies, and the impact of this influence is increasing. Since direct taxation is an instrument, and free trade within WTO is a goal, it seems difficult – but not impossible – to find compa- rable measures within these two concepts. Many international tax principles can be found in underlying WTO rules. For instance, Art XIV GATS values the bilateral network of DTC’s and does not violate the principle of reciprocity. As mentioned above, also the princi- ple of non-discrimination, the principle of efficiency and a concern over »harmful« tax competition can be found in the WTO Agreements. This leads to the final answer regarding the question raised above in chap- ter 1, whether the WTO impact on direct taxation can be characterized as the fourth string in Danish international taxation. From my point of view, the question should be answered with a YES. There seems to be no doubt that the impact of the WTO Agreements on direct taxation seems more relevant than ever, and that WTO Agreements could have a potential impact on both do- mestic tax legislation, double tax conventions and secondary EU legislation in the field of direct taxation.
Final conclusions. The experiences of the workshop have contributed to continuous experimentation, verification and implementation of a project-building process, of specific activities and relative tools in order to produce a toolkit and guidelines which also help non-designers to formulate a challenge and design a concept to apply the potential of DiDIY in their professional area. The toolkit represents all the techniques and tools designed and collected whilst the guidelines include the conditions necessary to start and set up a session of co-design and the flow of activities to be performed during the session, referring to the specific tools. The list of learning and warnings that emerged from the various workshops which will contribute to drawing up the guidelines is as follows.
Final conclusions. Figure 11 – Scenes from the workshop. The experiences of the workshops described so far have contributed to spreading knowledge of the project both in Italy and in Spain. Overall, about 350 contacts, of educators, teachers, schools, researchers, FabLabs, museums, SMEs, artisans, lawyers, policymakers, … have received an explanation of the DiDIY Project and an invitation to take part in a workshop. All were directed to visit the website of the project and to consult the results produced by the different partners in the four specific areas. Many asked to be kept updated on the activities of the DiDIY Project. The workshop was also spread through a visit to many FabLabs in Milan and through participation in events and conferences with topics related to the projects, held both in the Milan area and outside it, including the Maker Fair. Overall about 20 people took part in the workshops in the sphere of DiDIY&Legal System, personally experiencing a specific project-building process for DiDIY, thus becoming ambassadors of the method to be reproduced in their working environment. The experiences of the workshop have contributed to continuous experimentation, verification and implementation of a project-building process, of specific activities and relative tools in order to produce a toolkit and guidelines which also help non-designers to formulate a challenge and design a concept to apply the potential of DiDIY in their professional area. The toolkit represents all the techniques and tools designed and collected whilst the guidelines include the conditions necessary to start and set up a session of co-design and the flow of activities to be performed during the session, referring to the specific tools.
