Has Global HIV Incidence Peaked?

Evidence for Future Prevention

More Policy Series events >

Wednesday, June 28, 2006
2-3:30 pm
Global Health Council
1111 19th Street, NW - Suite 1120
Washington, D.C.


Evidence is accumulating that the incidence and prevalence of HIV/AIDS in some African countries - notably Kenya and Zimbabwe - is declining. Why have these declines occurred? Have the declines occurred equitably across the populations? What do these reversals tell us about the best way forward for prevention on a large scale - currently the only way we can reverse the expansion of the global pandemic?



On June 28th over 75 people joined us for a look at emerging evidence and stimulating discussion of what these findings mean for future efforts to stop HIV/AIDS.

Speakers:
The Policy Series is funded in part through the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the David and Lucile Packard Foundation, and with unrestricted educational support from Abbott Laboratories and GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals.
