This article introduces the first set of publications from the EURPDEP collaboration, presented in five accompanying papers this issue. The EURODEP Consortium is a Concerted Action Programme funded by the European Commission (EC) with the following objectives: to study the variation of the prevalence of depression in Europe among people aged 65 and over; to compare the clinical features and the mode of presentation of depression in each centre; and where possible to study the social support networks, adverse life events, daily life stresses and other risk factors and the reasons for failure to receive treatment in primary care.
