Message from H.E. Mr. Meles Zenawi,

Prime Minister of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia
On behalf of the people and Government of Ethiopia, it is my distinct pleasure to welcome all delegates to Addis
Ababa and the 16th International Conference on AIDS and STIs in Africa (ICASA 2011). We are honored to be
hosting this major international gathering at this critical juncture in the countdown to the 2015 MDGs. Three
decades following the discovery of AIDS, ICASA-2011 provides an important opportunity to take stock of the
significant progress made as well as the challenges we still face in reversing the epidemic in countries across
our continent.

As in many countries in Africa, Ethiopia has made great strides in expanding access to HIV prevention, treatment
and in providing care and support to those affected by HIV and AIDS. New HIV infections have declined by 25%
in many Sub-Saharan African countries, including ours. But while encouraging, these gains remain fragile.
Our response to the epidemic will not be successful until prevention efforts are intensified. I truly believe that
effective prevention is the surest ‘cure’ to halting and reversing the spread of HIV. Achieving our MDG 6 targets
will require even more aggressive and innovative ways for addressing the social, cultural and economic factors
that make people individually and collectively vulnerable to HIV infection.
It is my earnest hope that this conference yields tangible outcomes in this regard. We have before us a great
opportunity for dialogue and exchange among scientists, communities, people living with HIV, leaders and
development partners about recent developments and research findings, in prevention, treatment, care and
support and to distil their implications for dealing with the AIDS epidemic in Africa and around the globe over
the coming years. In particular, ICASA 2011 provides a unique platform for taking stock of best practices and
lessons learned in African countries, with a view to crafting more effective ‘African solutions’ for defeating this
scourge once and for all. By drawing on the wealth of knowledge and experience amassed across our region, we
have a real opportunity for devising well-tailored and integrated frameworks for quality prevention, treatment
and care services that will enable us to scale up towards universal access and further mitigate the impact of
AIDS on the development of our nations.
I believe this year’s theme is a particularly fitting one at this critical time. Against the backdrop of growing
global economic uncertainty, it is vital that African countries develop innovative and sustainable strategies
for mobilizing new resources—human, intellectual, and material— with a view to fortifying and sustaining our
response to the epidemic over the coming years. Indeed, the challenge now is for Africa to Own, Scale-up and
Sustain the fight and build on the successes of the past to finally turn the tide of the epidemic through greater
containment and significantly lower new infections.
We are all looking forward to a successful and fruitful conference and wish all delegates a very enjoyable and
pleasant time in Ethiopia. I hope that you will extend your stay so that you have a chance to visit the many
spectacular natural, cultural and historical sites and attractions of our diverse country. No doubt, the warm
hospitality of our people will exceed your expectations!

Message de S.E. M. Meles Zenawi,

Premier Ministre de la République Fédérale Démocratique
d’Ethiopie
Au nom du peuple et du Gouvernement de l’Ethiopie, j’ai un plaisir tout particulier à souhaiter la bienvenue
à tous les délégués à Addis Abeba pour la 16ème Conférence Internationale sur le SIDA et les IST en Afrique
(ICASA 2011). C’est pour nous un honneur, d’accueillir ce rassemblement international majeur, en ce moment
critique dans le compte à rebours pour l’accomplissement des ODM en 2015. Trente ans après la découverte
du SIDA, l’ICASA 2011 constitue une opportunité pour évaluer les progrès considérables effectués ainsi que les
défis rencontrés dans nos efforts pour éradiquer l’épidémie sur le continent.

Comme beaucoup d’autres pays africains, l’Ethiopie a progressé dans le domaine de l’accès universel à la
prévention, au traitement, à la prise en charge et à l’appui pour ceux atteints du VIH/SIDA. Les nouvelles
infections ont diminué de 25% dans de nombreux pays d’Afrique subsaharienne, dont le nôtre. Mais bien
qu’encourageants, ces gains restent incertains. La réponse à l’épidémie ne pourra être concluante tant que les
efforts de prévention ne se seront pas intensifiés pour en ralentir la croissance. Il y a un véritable besoin de
créer un environnement favorable à la prévention, atteindre les cibles de l’ODM 6 va nécessiter des moyens plus
agressifs et innovants pour les facteurs sociaux, culturels, et économiques qui rendent les individus de manière
individuelle et collective vulnérables au VIH. Je suis fermement convaincu qu’une prévention efficace est le
« remède » le plus sûr pour arrêter et inverser la propagation du VIH.
J’espère de tout cœur que cette conférence produise des solutions tangibles à ce problème. Nous avons devant
nous, une opportunité de dialogue et d’échanges entre scientifiques, communautés, personnes vivant avec
le VIH, leaders et partenaires en développement, sur les développements récents et les derniers résultats de
recherche en prévention, traitement, prise en charge et appui. Ils pourront retransmettre ce qu’ils ont tiré de
leur implication dans la lutte contre le SIDA en Afrique et à travers le monde pour les années à venir. L’ICASA
2011 fournit une plateforme unique pour évaluer les meilleures pratiques et leçons apprises dans différents pays
africains, dans l’optique de créer des « solutions africaines » plus efficaces pour venir à bout de ce fléau une
fois pour toutes. En tirant de la richesse du savoir et de l’expérience amassée à travers notre continent, nous
pourrons établir des cadres de travail intégrés sur mesure pour des services de prévention, traitement et prise
en charge de qualité qui nous permettront d’accélérer la cadence vers l’accès universel et mitiger l’impact du
SIDA sur le développement de nos nations.
Je crois que le thème de cette année est particulièrement important. Alors que les contraintes économiques
se multiplient, il est crucial que l’Afrique développe des stratégies et ressources - humaines, matérielles,
intellectuelles - durables pour augmenter l’effectivité de la réponse au VIH. Quoiqu’il en soit, le programme de
l’ICASA va s’appuyer sur la richesse du savoir du continent pour pouvoir y appliquer les résultats de recherche,
les leçons tirées, les méthodes de collaboration et les meilleurs cas. Le défi pour l’Afrique est de Renforcer,
s’Approprier et Pérenniser ces efforts ; et de bâtir sur les succès du passé pour changer la tendance actuelle de
l’épidémie pour qu’elle soit contenue et que le nombre de nouvelles infections diminue.
Nous espérons que l’ICASA sera une Conférence réussie et fructueuse et souhaitons à tous les délégués un
séjour plaisant et agréable en Ethiopie. N’hésitez pas à étendre votre visite afin de profiter de nos attractions
naturelles, culturelles et historiques. Je suis certain que notre hospitalité dépassera toutes vos attentes.

Message from Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus

Minister of Health, Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia and
Patron of ICASA 2011
It is a great honor and special opportunity for Ethiopia to be hosting ICASA-2011– the first international
conference of this scale focused on AIDS to take place in Addis Ababa. Special thanks are due to
the organizing committee and the numerous individuals and organizations that have supported our
preparations for this major event in so many ways. This gathering provides a great opportunity for us to
share the encouraging results and important lessons registered in our fight against the epidemic.
Our Government’s unwavering commitment to an ‘integrated health system strengthening approach’
to the delivery of primary health care services has been key to the progress we have made thus far.
A decade ago, HIV prevalence among the 15 to 24 age group in Ethiopia was 12.4%. Today, this figure has
stabilized at 2.4%. In 2005, fewer than 1,000 Ethiopians had access to ART. Today, over 333 thousand
Ethiopians, an estimated 66%, of those in need are receiving ART.
Our flagship Health Extension Program (HEP) has been the central driving force. In every village across our
country, pairs of health extension workers are reaching individual families with life-saving interventions and
a comprehensive package of basic health care services. We are now working to scale up HEP by further
empowering communities and particularly women, to manage their own health and that of their families. With
the deployment of this massive ‘Health Development Army’, we are determined to bring about the fundamental
grassroots change needed to turn back the tide of this epidemic and achieve all our health MDG targets.
But we recognize of course, that there will be critical challenges ahead. And so we are looking forward to
learning from the experiences of other countries in the region and the wide range of experts, practitioners,
people living with HIV, leaders and community representatives who are gathered here from all over the continent
and far beyond. We are especially mindful of the urgent need to bolster our prevention efforts and ensure the
long-term sustainability of our programs. ICASA-2011 is an ideal forum for deliberating new strategies and
innovative collaborative initiatives for further fueling and sustaining the tremendous hope already generated in
communities across our vast continent. I look forward to very fruitful discussions and I wish all participants a
very enjoyable and memorable stay in Ethiopia.

Message du Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus

Ministre de la Santé, République Fédérale Démocratique d’Ethiopie
et Gardien de l’ICASA 2011
C’est un grand honneur ainsi qu’une opportunité particulière pour l’Ethiopie d’accueillir l’ICASA 2011- première
conférence de cette échelle se concentrant sur le SIDA ayant lieu à Addis Abeba. Il faut tout particulièrement
remercier le comité organisateur et les nombreuses personnes et organisations qui ont soutenu nos
préparations pour cet évènement majeur par leurs actions. Ce rassemblement fournit une opportunité sans
pareil pour partager les résultats et leçons importantes que nous avons tiré de notre lutte contre l’épidémie.
L’engagement sans faille de notre Gouvernement à avoir une « approche de renforcement du système de
santé », pour donner les premiers services de prise en charge a été une des clés des progrès que nous
avons réalisés. Il y a une décennie, la prévalence du SIDA parmi les 15-24 ans en Ethiopie était de 12.4%.
Aujourd’hui ce chiffre a été stabilisé à 2.4%. En 2005, moins de 1000 éthiopiens avaient accès aux ARV.
Aujourd’hui, plus de 333 000 éthiopiens, soit près de 66% de ceux qui en ont besoin, reçoivent des ARV.
Notre Programme phare d’Extension des services de Santé (HEP) a été la force motrice derrière ces évolutions.
Dans chaque village de notre pays, des équipes de travailleurs de la santé assistent des familles par le biais
d’interventions salvatrices et l’accès à l’ensemble des soins et services de base en santé. Nous sommes
désormais en train de renforcer le programme HEP en autonomisant les communautés, plus particulièrement
les femmes, pour qu’elles gèrent leur santé et celle de leur famille. Avec le déploiement de cette « armée du
développement », nous sommes déterminés à apporter les changements profonds nécessaires pour renverser
la tendance de cette épidémie et atteindre tous les ODM en rapport avec la santé.
Cependant, nous sommes conscients que des défis nous attendent. C’est pourquoi nous avons hâte d’apprendre
des expériences d’autres pays de la région mais aussi des nombreux experts, praticiens, personnes vivant
avec le VIH, leaders et représentants des communautés venant du continent et plus loin encore, qui seront
rassemblés ici. Nous sommes tout particulièrement soucieux du besoin urgent que l’on a de renforcer nos efforts
de prévention et d’assurer la durabilité à long terme de nos programmes. L’ICASA 2011 est un forum idéal pour
alimenter et maintenir l’espoir qui existe déjà dans les communautés à travers notre vaste continent. J’attends
et je me réjouis de toutes les discussions fructueuses qui auront lieu et souhaite à tous les participants un
séjour agréable et mémorable en Ethiopie.

Message from the President of the Society for AIDS in Africa

(SAA)
Dear colleagues, delegates, welcome to ICASA 2011 Addis Ababa.
Once again the forefront stakeholders in the response to HIV/AIDS in Africa are meeting in Addis, the home of
the African Union to address our common enemy - the HIV epidemic and related diseases.
Since the inception of the International Conference on AIDS and STIs in Africa (ICASA), organized by the Society
for AIDS in Africa (SAA) after ICASA 1990 in Kinshasa, we have noticed with the support of the UN System,
WHO, UNAIDS, etc… and the strong commitment of governments, communities, development partners, NGOs,
CSO, scientists, health professionals, PLHIV and activists that the burden of HIV and related diseases in Africa
has stabilized in the face of considerable progress in access to prevention, treatment, care and support. The
platform provided by ICASA has helped increase knowledge on the virus, experience sharing, and development
of strong networks and significantly reduce stigmatization in our society.
However, ICASA 2008 hosted in Senegal in 2008, under the theme ‘’ Africa’s response: face the facts’’ recognized
that despite tangible achievements in the response, HIV and AIDS are still a major burden in Africa and our
people continue to get infected and to die. ICASA 2008 showed the weaknesses, challenges and strength of our
response in Africa. It showed that we cannot have an adequate response without involving and targeting key
affected populations and those most at risk, and calling for accountability at all levels of the AIDS response in
Africa.
ICASA 2011 in Addis is being organized 30 years since the first cases of what was later identified to be HIV
were reported. With the recent scientific advances in HIV treatment and prevention, the enormous impact on
survival, increased requirement for second and third –line treatment, and a new threshold of when to start,
means we face a huge looming patient population. Africa must prepare to harness new and emerging preventive
and treatment strategies being investigated including ‘’ Test and Treat’’ and the possible role of ‘’ Treatment as
Prevention’’. Commitment and constant renewal are vital. Here we are in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, the Headquarter
of AU, for ICASA 2011 whose theme is “Own, scale-up and sustain’’. We need the full engagement of AU in
terms of conventions on public health ratified by Heads of States; we need a scientific commission to seat at
the AU addressing in a truly cross-functional way the issues of HIV/AIDS, TB, Malaria and related diseases; to
facilitate the step –wise implementation of universal access.
Dear Delegates, less than five years to the target date for the achievement of the MDGs, I believe that this
powerful gathering of ICASA 2011 Addis will point the way forward to accomplishing our common vision of
“Zero new infections, Zero discrimination, and zero AIDS related deaths in Africa’’.
Prof Robert Soudre,

SAA President

Message du Président de la Société Africaine Anti-Sida (SAA)
Chers Collègues, Délégués, bienvenue à l’ICASA 2011 Addis Abeba.
Une fois de plus, les intervenants de premier ordre dans la réponse au VIH/SIDA en Afrique se réunissent à
Addis, ville-hôte de l’Union Africaine(UA) pour aborder notre ennemi commun- l’épidémie de VIH et les maladies
qui y sont liées.
Depuis les commencements de la Conférence Internationale sur le SIDA et les IST en Afrique (ICASA), organisée
par la Société Africaine Anti-SIDA (SAA), après l’ICASA de 1990 à Kinshasa, nous avons remarqué qu’avec
le soutien du système de l’ONU, de l’OMS, de l’ONUSIDA, etc. et l’engament renforcé des gouvernements,
communautés, partenaires en développement, ONG, scientifiques, professionnels de la santé, PVVIH et activistes
que le fardeau du VIH et de ses maladies associées en Afrique s’était allégé suite à des progrès considérables
dans l’accès à la prévention, au traitement, à l’appui et à la prise en charge. La plateforme fournie par l’ICASA
a aidé à augmenter le savoir sur le virus, le partage des expériences, le développement de réseaux forts et a
réduit de manière significative la stigmatisation dans nos sociétés.
Cependant, l’ICASA de 2008 au Sénégal sous le thème « La Réponse de l’Afrique : Faire face aux réalités »
a reconnu que malgré des résultats tangibles dans la réponse, le VIH et le SIDA restent un gros fardeau en
Afrique et notre peuple continue à être infecté et à mourir. L’ICASA 2008 a montré que l’on ne pouvait pas
avoir une réponse adéquate sans évoluer et viser les populations- clés et les plus à risque, et demander une
responsabilisation à tous les niveaux de la réponse au SIDA en Afrique.
L’ICASA 2011 à Addis est organisée trente ans après les premiers cas de ce qui a plus tard été identifié comme
étant le VIH. Avec les récentes avancées scientifiques dans le traitement du VIH et la prévention, l’énorme
impact que cela a eu sur la survie, le besoin croissant pour des traitements de deuxième et troisième ligne et
un nouveau seuil pour commencer le traitement signifient que nous allons faire face à une masse de patients
considérable. L’Afrique doit se préparer à avoir de nouvelles stratégies de prévention et de traitement dont
« Tester puis Traiter » et un rôle possible du « Traitement en tant que Prévention ». L’engagement et son
renouvellement constant sont vitaux. Nous sommes ici à Addis Abeba, Ethiopie, siège de l’UA pour l’ICASA 2011
dont le thème est « Appropriation, Renforcement et Pérennisation ». Nous avons besoin de l’engagement de
l’UA en termes de conventions sur la santé publique ratifiées par les chefs d’Etat ; nous avons besoins d’une
commission scientifique qui siègerait à l’UA et qui aborderait les questions de Malaria, VIH/SIDA, Tuberculose
et maladies associées de manière multisectorielle et fonctionnelle ; pour faciliter l’implémentation de l’accès
universel.
Chers délégués, à moins de cinq ans de la date d’atteinte des ODM, je crois que ce rassemblement à l’ICASA
2011 Addis va nous guider vers notre vision commune de «Zéro nouvelle infection VIH. Zéro discrimination.
Zéro décès lié au SIDA en Afrique».
Prof Robert Soudré.

Message from the Conference Chair
Welcome to the 16th ICASA, which has been jointly organized by the Government of Ethiopia in conjunction with
the Society for AIDS in Africa (SAA), various institutional and community partners as well as the private sector.
This year’s ICASA promises to be unique in that awards will be given to the best abstracts presented by young
investigators below age 35. This recognition aims to encourage scientific research in Africa, which is currently
facing challenges.
As per the tradition of ICASA, this year’s conference has been divided broadly into three areas of focus, including
the Scientific, Non- Abstract Driven (NADs) Sessions and the Community programmes. Each of these focus areas
have been carefully developed to ensure delegates experience a rich mix of the best from around the world.
Themed around ‘Own, Scale-Up and Sustain’, the programme for the 16th ICASA has been developed carefully
to ensure international standards, with excellent submissions from what the world is doing to respond to HIV in
Africa. The choice of speakers and the various facilitators is also a reflection of the organisers’ resolve to ensure
high level of interaction during the conference.
Together with the International Scientific Committee members, we have developed a record 407 presentations
in 150 plenary, parallel, skill-building, non-abstract driven and special sessions, all of which will provide current
information on the research that is being carried out on various corners of the continent. Due to the high level
of submissions, another 59 oral poster discussions have been arranged to ensure inclusion of more insights on
various research findings.
In the true spirit of Ethiopian culture, the community village comprises highly creative and focused programmes,
ranging from the youth pavilion to the community dialogue space. There is plenty there for all to share in
best practices around Africa. Not to forget the samples of Ethiopian arts and crafts, many of which are from
organisations that support PLHIV.
During this crucial time of worldwide economic recession, the theme for the 16th ICASA, Own, Scale-Up and
Sustain could not have come at a better time. The high level leadership sessions will seek to engage African
leaders at the highest level to commit to strategies that ensure home grown responses to the HIV pandemic.
Backed by sound scientific evidence, this forum promises to come up with resolutions that should move the
response in Africa to an even higher level.
To all the delegates, we wish you a fruitful ICASA 2011, and look forward to your positive engagement in the
entire programme.
Dr. Yigeremu Abebe

Chair, ICASA 2011

Message du Président de la Conférence
Bienvenue à la 16ème ICASA organisée par le gouvernement éthiopien, la Société Africaine Anti-SIDA (SAA),
divers partenaires institutionnels et communautaires ainsi que le secteur privé.
Cette année, l’ICASA 2011 cherche à se différencier par les prix qu’elle va décerner aux meilleurs résumés
présentés par des chercheurs âgés de moins de 35 ans. Cette reconnaissance a pour but d’encourager la
recherche scientifique en Afrique qui, aujourd’hui, fait face à de nombreux défis.
L’ICASA, comme à son habitude, sera divisée en trois grandes parties, soit le programme Scientifique, les
sessions libres (Non-Abstract Driven Sessions) et le programme Communautaire. Chacune de ces zones de
focalisation a été développée avec attention pour s’assurer que les participants profitent d’un mélange riche du
meilleur de la recherche existant à travers le monde.
Tournant autour du thème « Appropriation, Renforcement et Pérennisation », le programme de la 16ème ICASA

a été développé de telle sorte que les standards internationaux soient remplis, grâce à d’excellentes soumissions
portant sur la réponse que l’on est en train d’apporter au VIH en Afrique. Le choix des orateurs et facilitateurs,
par ailleurs, reflète la détermination des organisateurs à assurer le plus haut niveau d’interaction durant la
Conférence.
Avec l’aide des membres du Comité Scientifique International, nous avons développé un total de 407 présentations
compris dans 150 sessions : plénières, parallèles, libres, spéciales et ateliers, qui fourniront des informations,
sur les recherches qui sont menées actuellement à travers le continent. De par le nombre élevé de soumissions,
59 présentations de discussions d’affiches ont été ajoutées pour avoir un spectre plus grand des divers résultats
de recherche.
Tout en restant fidèle à la culture éthiopienne, le village communautaire comprend des programmes créatifs
et orientés sur les thématiques de la Conférence, allant du Pavillon de la Jeunesse à l’Espace de Dialogue
Communautaire. Ces lieux fourniront l’opportunité de partager les meilleurs cas du continent africain. Par
ailleurs, il ne faut pas oublier, l’artisanat éthiopien qui sera mis en valeur par les différentes organisations
présentes pour soutenir la cause des personnes vivant avec le VIH.
Durant cette période de récession économique mondiale, le thème de la 16ème ICASA, « Appropriation,
Renforcement et Pérennisation », est des plus appropriés. Les sessions de leadership vont chercher à impliquer
les africains, en particulier ceux se trouvant au plus haut niveau du processus décisionnel, à adopter et suivre
des stratégies qui assureront des réponses locales et adaptées à la pandémie du VIH. Appuyé par des preuves
scientifiques, ce forum tient à apporter des recommandations qui augmenteront le niveau de réponse au VIH
en Afrique.
A tous les délégués, nous vous souhaitons une ICASA 2011 fructueuse et attendons avec impatience votre
implication positive dans la totalité du programme.

Monday
5 Dec Africa’s leaders have expressed concerns at various monumental
meetings that HIV and AIDS is a global emergency that needs
to be addressed – actively, efficiently, and collaboratively. Time
and again, African leaders have united to pledge support to the
Tuesday
6 Dec Abuja and Maputo declarations and MDGs in order to highlight the
major commitments and necessary strides towards addressing this
pressing issue. The MDGs place health squarely at the center of the
Wednesday international development agenda since three of the eight MDGs

combating the HIV and AIDS epidemic. However, challenges still
exist and continue to arise, hindering the ability to fully implement
Thursday the promises that have been made to fight HIV and AIDS. This

MOLNADS01 Enabling Legal Environment for HIV Venue: B4:
Response Walia
Créer un environnement juridique
favorable à la réponse au VIH

As HIV and AIDS responses are scaled up worldwide and in every
sector, these responses need to be grounded in sound policies, laws
and practices as well as fulfill human rights of men and women
regardless of age, ethnicity, religion, class, gender or any other
factor so that men and women can realize their full potential. A legal
and human rights approach to gender and HIV and AIDS responses
will require that interventions are rethought and redesigned
to promote rights, reduce inequality and harness substantive
participation of those that are most vulnerable and affected. To
accelerate the efforts on prevention, treatment, care and support,
it is vital to address the issue of stigma and discrimination. Does
specific legislation, to criminalize the deliberate spreading of
HIV, increases stigma and discrimination and, hence, discourage
testing? Do we need a case specific legislation for HIV and AIDS?
Or, should the emphasis be on effective use of all legislation
relating to infectious deceases and human rights? What are the
legal enforcement frameworks for rape and sexual violence in the
context of HIV and AIDS? This session will address these questions
and related issues through presentation and discussion by giving
practical examples.

Relevance of Legal Services in

I
Les personnes vivant avec le VIH et les populations clés sont

des personnes très vulnérables. Elles subissent très souvent
des actes de discriminations. Pour combattre cela, beaucoup de
pays se sont dotés de réglementation en faveur des PVVIH qui
interdisent les pratiques de discrimination. Malheureusement, un
grand nombre des PVVIH ignorent presque tout de leurs droits,
les lois et règlements en vigueur, existant en leur faveur et n’ont
donc jamais pu bénéficier de «soutien juridique» quelconque. Les
Monday services juridiques liés au VIH s’adressent aux personnes vivant
5 Dec avec le VIH, aux personnes touchées par le VIH (par exemple la
famille d’une PVVIH, la veuve ou l’orphelin) et aux populations
clés (par exemple Travailleuses du Sexe ou les Hommes qui ont
Tuesday des rapports sexuels avec des Hommes). Ces services sont une
6 Dec composante essentielle pour une riposte nationale efficace au VIH et
contribuent directement à construire un environnement propice aux
programmes de prévention, de soins, de soutien et de traitement du
Wednesday VIH. L’objectif de cette session est de promouvoir la pertinence des
7 Dec

Writing abstract for conferences like ICASA can be difficult,

a successful abstract knows what kind of information to include and
how to frame it. The first part of this workshop will be dedicated
to providing guidance on the formal requirements of writing a
conference abstract, facilitated by using illustrative examples and
individual exercises (45min). In the second part considerations
of how to submit an abstract and the procedure for scoring and
selection will be reviewed (20min). We will have an open session in
the third part to explore any questions that the participants have
or experiences they would like to share that can support others
(25min).

MOSS02 Value for Money: Sustaining HIV Venue: A1: Abay
Response
La valeur de l’argent: Maintenir la
réponse au VIH
Monday
We are in the midst of global financial and economic crisis forcing 5 Dec
governments to cut on spending. Often, health programs are one
of the first to suffer the brunt of shrinking financial resources. The
resources made available for HIV responses to achieve Universal Tuesday
Access are dwindling from time to time. At this juncture, the 6 Dec
response to HIV should introduce effective and efficient approaches
of managing available resources. The principles of Value for Money
are among these strategies that should be instituted to address Wednesday
the current funding shortages of HIV responses to achieve the 7 Dec
MDGs. Achieving the same result with reduced cost (Economy),

designing correct way of spending (Efficiency), and spending wisely
(Efficiency) should all be considered to make a big difference with Thursday
8 Dec
the limited resources available. The current way of spending in
HIV sector has not taken Value for Money as one of the effective
mechanisms of resource management. It is timely to observe this
mechanism to scale-up and sustain the response to HIV epidemic in
Africa.

It has been documented that Africa in general and Sub-Saharan
Africa in particular carries the brunt of HIV infections. In this
continent gender norms, unequal distribution of power and ongoing
gender-based sexual violence have enhanced vulnerability to HIV
infection and exacerbated maternal and child health challenges.
Despite recognition of the challenge and introduction of new policies
and programs, the success in curbing the scourge is not yet enough.
This session aims to explore existing exemplary experience in
addressing gender-based violence in connection to HIV.

MOLSBW03 Pertinence des services juridiques Venue: B6:
Partie- 2 dans la riposte au VIH Nechsar
Relevance of legal services in response
to HIV

Les personnes vivant avec le VIH et les populations clés sont
des personnes très vulnérables. Elles subissent très souvent
des actes de discriminations. Pour combattre cela, beaucoup de
pays se sont dotés de réglementation en faveur des PVVIH qui
interdisent les pratiques de discrimination. Malheureusement, un
grand nombre des PVVIH ignorent presque tout de leurs droits,
les lois et règlements en vigueur, existant en leur faveur et n’ont
donc jamais pu bénéficier de «soutien juridique» quelconque. Les
services juridiques liés au VIH s’adressent aux personnes vivant
avec le VIH, aux personnes touchées par le VIH (par exemple la
famille d’une PVVIH, la veuve ou l’orphelin) et aux populations
clés (par exemple Travailleuses du Sexe ou les Hommes qui ont
des rapports sexuels avec des Hommes). Ces services sont une
composante essentielle pour une riposte nationale efficace au VIH et
contribuent directement à construire un environnement propice aux
programmes de prévention, de soins, de soutien et de traitement du
VIH. L’objectif de cette session est de promouvoir la pertinence des
services juridiques dans la riposte au VIH.

Free Generation
Panel des Premières Dames: Vers une
génération sans VIH

In response to the call to action from both the African Summit on
HIV and AIDS, Tuberculosis and other related infectious diseases;
and the United Nations General Assembly on HIV and AIDS, thirty-
seven African First Ladies and their representatives established the
Organization of African First Ladies against HIV and AIDS (OAFLA)
in 2002 to collectively combat this pandemic. The organization’s
major focus is to increase the capacity of First Ladies and other
women leaders to advocate for effective solutions to respond to
HIV and AIDS as well as against stigma and discrimination. Their
engagement in addressing HIV is multi-dimensional, mainly through
prevention of mother to child transmission (PMTCT), preventing
child marriage, promoting women and girls empowerment, and
reproductive health. This session deliberates on the efforts made
and leadership provided by the First Ladies towards achieving
an HIV free generation and indicates next steps to enhancing
commitment and action.

Safe Male Circumcision
Une issue pour une Génération sans
VIH: Une collaboration du leadership
africain pour une circoncision
masculine saine

There is compelling evidence that male circumcision reduces the risk
of heterosexually acquired HIV infection in men by approximately
60%. This has led to recommendations for safe male circumcision
to be added to other HIV prevention strategies. In this session
presenters will give an overview of safe male circumcision (SMC)
programs in 14 targeted countries in Sub-Saharan Africa paying
particular attention to challenges, costing and impact; role of
political and traditional leaders in SMC and lessons learned from
interface of traditional male circumcision (MC) and voluntary
medical male circumcision (VMMC) in Botswana and Zimbabwe. In
addition, the session will explore best practices on the use of media
in promoting SMC; and the role of women in championing SMC. At
the end of the session, participants will get an opportunity to ask
questions, share their experiences and discuss the issue further.

MOSS04 Ministerial Panel — Finance and Venue: A1: Abay
Economy: Funding HIV Response
Panel ministériel — Finance et
Economie: Financer la réponse au VIH

To respond to the threat posed by HIV and AIDS and to increase
access and accountability, African Heads of States declared HIV
and AIDS as a continental emergency and pledged to allocate at
least 15% of their respective countries’ total budgets to improving
the health sector during the Abuja Declaration in 2001. This
promise has only partially been fulfilled. In addition, HIV and AIDS-
related funding from the international community for low and
middle-income countries reaches the projects which spend it via
one (or more) of three funding streams: donations from national
governments; multi-lateral/bilaterlal funding organizations; and
private funding. Is the existing level of funding and structures
adequate for HIV programming? How can the international
community ensure that current global financial crisis will not
adversely impact HIV funding? Program sustainability using
Health System Strengthening approach, increased private sector
participation, mainstreaming HIV and AIDS and integrating it with
other health services and related issues are discussed during this
session.

Accès Universel: Sommes-Nous
Incapables de Satisfaire aux Besoins
des Femmes et Filles?

Universal Access means an equitable, accessible, affordable,
comprehensive, measurable and sustainable advance of the most
effective interventions needed to manage the diverse HIV epidemics
across countries on the African continent. Each of the key ICASA
2011 themes can easily be translated into the building blocks of
Universal Access. However, thirty years into the epidemic, women
and girls account for 60 per cent of those living with HIV in Sub-
Saharan Africa, and that 76 per cent of young people aged 15 - 24
years living with HIV are female. As programmers, policy makers,
scientists, advocates and politicians need to ask ourselves the
question: “are we failing to meet the needs of women and girls?”
and if so, “how can we do better: scale-up quicker, with more
ownership and in a sustainable manner?” This session will raise
awareness on how to reach Universal Access targets, discuss
and debate the progress made and identify obstacles in the
implementation of key global and regional commitments relating to
women, girls, gender equality and HIV and try to set priority areas
and steps for accelerated action on women, girls, gender equality
and HIV.

HIV and AIDS has rapidly become one, if not the most, of the
alarming and devastating pandemics the world has ever seen. It
Tuesday is not only a considerable health problem, but also a development
6 Dec problem that threatens the political leadership, economic and social
fabric of many nations. Relatively little attention has been paid to
HIV and AIDS prevention and care in the context of humanitarian
Wednesday responses. Traditionally, the priorities of such efforts have included
7 Dec
the provision of food, water, sanitation, shelter and basic health
services. Due to its chronic nature, HIV and AIDS has not been
Thursday
considered an immediate threat to life and has, therefore, not
8 Dec been considered a serious issue. Meanwhile, studies have shown
that the conditions associated with conflict and forced population
displacement, including poverty, social instability and powerlessness,
exacerbate HIV transmission considerably. Despite these facts,
the response to HIV and AIDS remains limited by policy makers
and practitioners. There is a need to take HIV and AIDS seriously,
recognize its impact in emergencies and identify those who are most
vulnerable. This session is intended to show the importance of going
beyond health in response to HIV to protect the population against
violence and address socio-economic vulnerabilities.

Monday
To increase the momentum and effectiveness of the HIV response, 5 Dec
key affected people’s engagement needs to be accepted as an
essential component of any HIV program strategy. HIV interventions
are more effective when key affected people themselves are
directly involved and have ownership in designing, implementing Tuesday
6 Dec
and monitoring programs and services. Policy makers and health
providers do not always understand the realities of all or some of
the key affected people. It is, therefore, essential to ensure that
Wednesday
local experiences and realities are heard and addressed. In this 7 Dec
session speakers make presentations on meaningful involvement
of key affected populations in the HIV response in Africa; missing
points in implementing GIPA; measuring the implementation of GIPA Thursday
and the meaning of scorecard results. This session further provides 8 Dec
an opportunity for participants to understand the importance and
impact of the involvement of key affected people in HIV and STIs
interventions.

aux cultures 6 Dec

As much as we love our culture, it is important for our culture to
protect us. We found some practices that were not protecting us but Wednesday
putting us at risk, for example wife inheritance. We are, therefore, 7 Dec

Workshop
MOLSBW10 Combination Prevention in Action: Venue: B6:
Using the Workplace as an Entry-Point Nechsar
Lier la prévention à l’action: utiliser
le milieu du travail comme point de
départ

An HIV prevention approach based solely on one element does not
work and can hinder the AIDS response. Combination prevention
includes among other elements: access to information about HIV,
access to treatment, harm reduction measures, waiting longer to
become sexually active, being faithful, reducing multiple partners
and concurrent relationships, male circumcision, ensuring human
rights and the reduction of stigma. The skills building workshop
will provide participants with a better understanding on how the
workplace can be an entry point for comprehensive prevention.
Participants will look at how interventions, from education to access
to services, could be developed in a specific sector of the economy
involving a number of enterprises from the public or private sector,
as well as operators from the informal economy.

5 Dec efficients dans leur réponse au VIH

To date, the HIV and AIDS response has had a far-reaching
and unquestionable impact on health care globally: building
Tuesday
6 Dec infrastructure and systems, improving the quality of services,
reaching socially marginalized and vulnerable groups, and engaging
consumers. New investments in HIV and AIDS services have
Wednesday revealed existing fragilities in health systems; in some cases, it
7 Dec has burdened these systems by stretching overextended resources
in order to meet escalating demand. The push for HIV and AIDS
treatment access has not solely focused on funding, but attention
Thursday has also been given to lack of human resources, poor infrastructure,
8 Dec
insufficient supplies and other related issues. Although the HIV
and AIDS response has prompted considerable new financing,
the mobilization of activists and health care consumers has also
forced global and national leaders toward a more vigorous sense of
accountability and urgency. The challenges have stimulated different
innovative approaches, and this session emphasizes the necessity of
an effective health system to battle HIV and AIDS.

TULNADS08 Key Populations on HIV/AIDS: LGBT Venue: A4:
Populations-clés pour le VIH et le Tekeze
SIDA: GLBT

Homosexuality is not a matter of public discussion in most of African
countries. The legal status of homosexuality does not state much
about the status of homosexuals. Taboos in the general public are
far more pertinent. Yet, it does not mean homosexuals do not exist
in underground gay/lesbian community, but not being an issue of
public discussion. Most African languages, however, have words for
“gay” and “lesbian”, demonstrating a traditional knowledge of the
existence of this sexual orientation. The panelist will present issues
related to realties and cultural challenges in Africa, discrimination
on the ground of sexual orientation, HIV among LGBT groups,
the public health ramifications of homosexuality, need for specific
services, laws and national policies, criminalization of homosexuality
and its impact on perpetuating HIV infection.

Health research is a collaborative effort of multiple partners which
often have different areas of competence and various levels of
capacity. Effective health research partnership requires appropriate
recognition of the value of the contributions of each partner. Where
there is disparity in resources, as is commonly seen in collaborations
between high income country and African research teams, the
true worth of local and indigenous knowledge, onsite resources,
personnel time, skills and the enabling environment created for
successful research must be recognized alongside the financial and
technical input of the better resourced partners. Equity and justice
within a partnership will be beneficial to all members and strengthen
capacity that guarantees sustained productivity in research. This
session will explore the concepts of partnership ethics including
background, experiences, mechanisms and practical tools for
partnership assessment.

Special Session
TUSS06 Corporate Social Responsibility Venue: A1: Abay
La responsabilité sociale commune

Countless private sector organizations are involved in the
response to HIV and AIDS, including corporate donors, individual
philanthropists, religious groups, charities and non-governmental
organizations. These organizations vary in size, from small groups
such as local churches, to large contributors and corporate donors.
Overall, the private sector is by far the smallest of the main sources
of funding for the HIV and AIDS response. The Sub-Sahara private
sector has contributed modestly toward building or expanding health
services. In fact, it has been sidelined despite mounting demands
and the exponential growth of the private health sector. Scaling-up
the response and sustainability of health initiatives is unthinkable
without fully engaging the private sector. This session’s aim is to
share experiences, leverage and build public-private partnerships
(PPP), encourage leadership and networking, and ultimately increase
the use of preventive measures and treatment that will mitigate the
effects of HIV and AIDS.

Diseases
S‘Unir Avec Un Plan D‘Action Commun
Pour les Maladies Transmissibles et
Non-Transmissibles

Commonwealth Health Ministers at their meeting in May 2011
emphasised the need for focussed attention on the overlap between
Communicable and Non-Communicable Diseases.
Globally, 80 percent of the 35million NCD-related deaths in 2008
occurred in developing countries. NCDs accounted for 2.8 million
deaths in Africa in 2008. These figures are expected to rise by 27%
over the next decade in the region.
The main aim of this session is to raise awareness of NCDs and their
linkages to HIV/AIDS in Africa and to sensitise participants to the
practical and political issues pertaining to the integration of health
systems and services to respond to the dual disease burden.
This session will give participants an opportunity to get an overview
of NCDs in sub-Saharan Africa, to learn lessons from the HIV/AIDS
experience which can be applied to combating NCDs and learn
about practical examples of the integration of services to address
Communicable and Non-Communicable Diseases.

TUCNADS15 PMTCT Services in Africa Venue: A7:
Services de PTME en Afrique Lalibela

Prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV (PMTCT) is
consistent with the goals of HIV prevention and improved child
health and survival. A woman with HIV has a 30-35% chance of
transmitting the virus to her newborn. With no interventions to
reduce transmission, infants will be infected during pregnancy, labor,
delivery, and breastfeeding. Recommended PMTCT interventions,
including offering antiretroviral drugs, can be undermined if HIV
positive women are not counseled well. This session addresses
issues related to the role of community in keeping mothers
alive; major gaps in addressing PMTCT in Africa; and community
contribution to the PMTCT policy development and to the four
prongs. This session provides an opportunity for the participants to
identify the role of communities at program and policy levels and
recognize gaps related to PMTCT services.

Community conversation has proven to be an effective social
transformation tool particularly in developing countries where
the resource is scarce or limited. We have learnt from experience
that sustainable changes occur when programs are implemented
at grassroots level, in scale and owned by communities. As a
system approach, community dialogue and action facilitates
the change process by dealing with community concerns from
different perspectives; the attitudes of people or mental models,
and the system or structural issues and the time dimension.
The workshop aims to provide the knowledge and skills needed
to design, implement and evaluate community development
programs using community dialogue and action through sharing
experiences and results from the field, rationalizing the thinking
behind the methodology, introducing the tools and their application
and providing the big picture to help participants visualize and
understand the whole process.

TULNADS16 Towards Efficient Linkage of SRH and Venue: A1:
Thursday HIV Prevention in Africa Abay
8 Dec
Vers un alliage efficace de la SSR et de
la prévention au VIH en Afrique

In Africa, the majority of HIV infections are related to sexual and
reproductive health (SRH). The promotion of SRH and the mitigation
of HIV and AIDS are challenged by the same root causes; including
gender based violence and socio-economic vulnerabilities of
women and young people. Unmet family planning need might lead
to teenage pregnancy, maternal mortality, and unsafe abortion.
Effective linkage and integration of SRH and HIV/AIDS interventions
are key opportunity for success.

Therefore, this session is designed by the AUC, UNFPA and partners
to discuss strategies towards efficient linkages of SRH and HIV
prevention in Africa and present emerging good practices. It will
show that the AU inducted Campaign for Accelerated Reduction of
Maternal Mortality in Africa (CARMMA) is a vehicle for linkage of SRH
and HIV prevention; that comprehensive PMTCT (including Prongs
I and II) is a vital vehicle for Linkages of SRH and HIV Prevention;
it will highlight that young people and adolescents must be the
priority target groups who will benefit from an efficient linkage of
SRH and HIV prevention. Methodologically, the session will enable
participants to share existing knowledge, discuss practical guidance
from regional partners and successful country experiences. In all,
it will provide opportunity to review evidence of linkages of SRH
and HIV prevention, experiences of linkages and integration in the
region and political leadership for reduction of maternal mortality
and HIV infection.

I
Project continuation and sustainability post funding remains

debatable. Involvement of project beneficiaries, public-private
partnership, social responsibility, private sector involvement,
community ownership is some of the highlighted possible solutions
to the issue of sustainability of HIV interventions. The private sector
in Sub-Saharan Africa has hardly been a participant in key public
health services. As a matter of fact, it had been sidelined despite
increasing demands while at the same time the private health sector
Monday has grown exponentially. Scaling-up the HIV, TB and STIs response
5 Dec and sustainability is unthinkable without the full engagement of the
private sector. The objectives of this session is to review and present
best practices in public-private partnership, to indicate the role and
Tuesday responsibilities of pharmaceuticals in sustaining the HIV response,
6 Dec to show private sector involvement in scaling-up health care delivery
and human resource development. In addition, the session will
address questions such as what do we mean by social responsibility,
Wednesday what are the best practices and challenges of public-private
7 Dec
partnership in response to HIV, TB, Malaria and STIs programs and
provides practical examples. At the end of the session, delegates
will get opportunity to ask questions, share their experiences,
Thursday
8 Dec challenges as well as opportunity for successes.

Very young children often do not receive the external support

that is available to their older siblings. However, despite the
relative lack of attention to young children affected by HIV and
AIDS, there are a growing number of community-based efforts
that are attempting to support improved early childhood care and
development in AIDS-affected areas. At the end of this workshop
participants will: Understand the specific needs of young children
(0 to 8) who are affected/infected by HIV and AIDS; Discuss and
review the Essential Package framework; Discuss how the essential Monday
actions can be adapted to different country context; Learn about 5 Dec
indicators and tools that have been developed and tested in several
African countries (Mozambique and Zambia) to evaluate young
children’s well-being; Strengthen one’s counseling skills by using the Tuesday
Essential Package Counselling tools; and Exchange examples of how 6 Dec
programs are able to meet the needs of young children efficiently
and effectively.

to do it better by interacting on an ongoing basis. Over the last
years, several communities of practice have been launched at
international level. The community counts at the moment more than
500 members and it aims at facilitating information exchange about
AIDS treatment and care between Institute of Tropical Medicine
(ITM) and HCWs working in resource-limited settings. This workshop
includes communication about highlights and challenges of existing
projects as well as establishing and communicating best practice
models. The CoP discussions include clinical and organizational
aspects and aim at improving collaboration between SCART/eSCART

The concept of country ownership gained considerable attraction
recently. Different forums have been organized both regionally
and internationally to discuss what country ownership means and
to begin identifying specific strategies to advance the principles in
the context of national AIDS responses. This session will promote
a shared understanding of the principles and characteristics of
country ownership and sustainability based on the findings of the
country ownership consultations; discuss progress, bottlenecks,
and challenges to ownership of AIDS response , identify the
principles, strategies and types of support required by countries and
development partners to address the concrete challenges of national
ownership of AIDS responses in the region and propose concrete
measures for enhancing and promoting national ownership in Africa.

I
Eliminating new HIV infections in children by 2015 and keeping

their mothers alive is a priority for the African region and is included
in the African Union Outcome Framework. Further, many global
partners and national governments have committed to work towards
this objective under The Global Plan. The ICASA theme of “Own,
Scale up and Sustain” is particularly relevant to the discussions
around this ambitious goal to eliminate new pediatric infections and
keep mothers alive. As countries plan in line with this commitment,
it is critical that national plans are aligned with latest global policies Monday
5 Dec
and guidance, global elimination goals, and lessons learned from
equity-focused bottleneck analyses. ICASA will provide a forum to
discuss the framework and engage a wide range of stakeholders on
the agenda of elimination of new pediatric infections and keeping Tuesday
6 Dec
mothers alive. Critical questions will be asked on what needs to be
done differently in order to achieve this goal.

I
Nearly four million HIV-positive young people live in Sub-Saharan

Africa, 80% of the world total. Of these, most are young women:
up to eight young women 15-24 are HIV positive for every male
in that age range (UNAIDS, 2010). Most young people in Africa
have no access to reproductive and sexual health education and
lack sufficient access to sexual and reproductive health services.
Furthermore, those youth with the highest risk such as sex workers,
men who have sex with men, and migrants, are the least likely to
Monday access services. Few programs address structural vulnerabilities that
5 Dec expose young people to new HIV infections, including the millions of
unemployed and impoverished youth. ICASA provides an excellent
platform to engage and empower young people. Investments in
Tuesday young people by national governments will have great returns for
6 Dec any given nation as young people are the driving force of change.
Participants will discuss the facts, issues, challenges and the way
forward to build a new generation of leaders.

WESNADS26 Challenges in Tuberculosis and HIV Co- Venue: A4:
Infection Tekeze
Défis dans les Co-infections de la
Tuberculose et du VIH

Tuberculosis (TB) is the largest cause of death in AIDS, having
caused between a third to a half of all AIDS deaths globally, and is
a monumental problem in sub-Saharan Africa. Each infection on its
own manipulates the host immune response to enhance the other
infection’s pathogenicity, and, the treatment of each involves long
or lifelong therapy of complicated drug regimens, which impact on
treatment of the other. As HIV compromises the immune system,
it fuels clinical emergence of TB and as a result has become the
driving force of the current TB epidemic, including MDR TB in Africa
and Asia. TB in turn drives HIV-1 replication and causes HIV-1
disease progression. The focus of this Symposium is to gain deeper
insights into the current treatment issues, immune pathology and
deadly synergism between HIV and TB to interrupt the disease
cycle.

Children
Vaccination de Routine et Entretien
de la Mémoire Sérologique chez les
Enfants Infectes par le VIH

The use of vaccines in HIV-infected children raises questions
regarding the competence of their immune response in mounting
a successful defense. HIV infected children are at risk of a range
of diseases including those that would normally be prevented by
vaccination because of a poor serological memory. Because of
low persistence of antibodies to vaccines used in immunization
programs, HIV-infected children may require alternative
immunization strategies and schedules than currently available.
This session assesses the current understating that underlies the
B cell damage that leads to poor immune response and how this
compromises the long term serological memory of HIV-infected
children. Alternative vaccination schedules are presented and novel
therapeutic approaches to restore antibody responses during HIV
infection discussed.

The session is intended to carry a message of the Diaspora and
highlights the contribution that over the last 30 years in the
life of HIV and AIDS and of all associated social, psychological,
developmental and economical burdens. The rapid decimation of
young heads of household, leaving their young helpless children
with no support and unpredictable future in the 80s and 90s was
the turning point for the Diaspora’s much obliged involvement
with the orphan aspect of HIV and AIDS. The initiatives to aid the
efforts countries have been taking to ease and in some instances
abate the burden of HIV. The work eventually diversified into public
information and preventive education, seeking funds for treatment
of opportunistic infections, youth programs, job training of orphans
and orphan girls’ education and care center. At the same time,
universities and organizations that established well grounded HIV
and AIDS research centers or networking arrangements started
participating in knowledge and technology transfer about HIV and
AIDS to medical professionals through various media. This session
will present and discuss the work of the Diaspora in the fight against
the HIV epidemic and future prospects.

The goal of community systems strengthening (CSS) is to develop
the roles of key affected populations and communities, community
organizations and networks, and public or private sector actors that
work in partnership with the civil society at community level, in the
design, delivery, monitoring and evaluation of services and activities
aimed at improving health and HIV and AIDS intervention outcomes.
It has a strong focus on capacity development and on human and
financial resources, with the aim of enabling communities and
community actors to play a full and effective role alongside the
health and social welfare systems. This session gives an opportunity
for the participants to discuss on issues related to the conceptual
understanding and implication of the CSS in our daily work;

these key populations make them more vulnerable to HIV. This
skills building workshop will (a) expose participants to approaches
that look at these specificities and at the interlinked needs of the
different populations in the corridors; (b) help them planning
effective responses that address vulnerabilities as a system of socio-
economic factors beyond individual behaviors. In order to ensure
interaction and active learning the workshop will combine case study
analysis and working groups.

‘Love, Life and HIV’ brings to life, through interviews, the real 8 Dec
experiences of young people living with HIV recorded, produced
and edited by them in a DVD. The accompanying Love, Life and
HIV toolkit is designed to explore the issues raised in the DVD.
It provides information on how to reduce HIV-related stigma and
discrimination, and develop a greater understanding of what it
means to be young and living with HIV. This workshop will include
taster activities from the toolkit, which have been designed for
young people and could be carried out in secondary schools,
universities and youth groups but will also be of interest to health
providers, policy makers and advocates working with young people.

L’atelier vise à fournir aux apprenants des connaissances sur

des espaces sociaux où le Comité National de Lutte contre le Sida a
autorisé la création de comité ministériel et de comité d’entreprise
de lutte contre le sida. Il s’agit de montrer à partir de l’exemple
du burkinabè comment le dispositif sida s’institutionnalise sur le
lieu de travail. Il s’agit aussi de partager l’expérience du travailleur
malade du sida. En effet, l’atelier permettra de mettre en évidence
le vécu quotidien de la personne vivant avec le VIH s’opérant sur
un environnement de travail dans un processus d’apprentissage
de soins biomédicaux, d’affrontement des collègues de travail et
enfin de compte de reconversion de la figure de malade dominé
à la prise de rôle d’acteur dans la lutte contre le sida. L’atelier
permettra non seulement le partage de connaissances théoriques,
d’expériences pratiques mais aussi il fournira les outils opérationnels

With more than 22 million people in Sub-Saharan Africa infected
7 Dec with HIV, many of whom are parents, some 70 million children
are likely to be enduring the consequences of living with people
sick from AIDS. It is estimated that about 12 million children in
Thursday Sub-Saharan Africa are orphaned as a results of AIDS. Thus, HIV
8 Dec and AIDS epidemic continues to place, an increased burden on
families in Africa and on their abilities to meet the needs of their
children. Today, providing the bulk of this much-needed care and
support is shouldered by grandparents, extended families and
children themselves. However, the traditional social norm and role
of care and support to extended families are being challenged
due to poverty and increasing number of children. Today, finding
children abandoned on the streets and children headed-households
is not surprising news anymore. This session aims to provoke
discussion on the missed opportunities in creating nurtured future
generations, understanding vulnerabilities of OVCs, reviewing and
highlighting children rights, and in sharing findings on the changing
roles of OVCs and the impact of such roles on their well-being and
development.

standards, and that the term, ‘or other status’ in non-discrimination
provisions in international human rights texts should be interpreted
Wednesday to cover health status, including HIV and AIDS”. This workshop
7 Dec is planned to identify the clear overlaps between the violations of
PLHIV’s sexual and reproductive rights and their human rights. At
the end of the session, participants will have advocacy strategies
Thursday to rely on, be able to identify reporting mechanisms for human

these interactions. There will also be small group discussions to

THLNADS33 The 2011 Political Declaration on AIDS: Venue: A1: Abay
Implications for Africa
La Déclaration de 2011 sur le SIDA:
Implications Pour l‘Afrique
Monday

5 Dec At the 2011 UN High Level Meeting on AIDS, a new Political
Declaration, “Intensifying our Efforts to Eliminate HIV/AIDS” was
unanimously adopted. It sets forth bold new targets and calls on
Member States to redouble efforts to achieve, by 2015, universal
Tuesday access, with a view to attaining Millennium Development Goal 6. The
6 Dec
Declaration is also commendable for recognizing key populations at
higher risk of HIV infection - men who have sex with men, people
Wednesday
who inject drugs and sex workers. Countries must now urgently
7 Dec review this new global mandate and determine their own role in
reaching the 2015 targets. The most pressing task at hand now
is to take the Declaration forward and work with countries - top
Thursday leadership, civil society, people living with HIV and other key
8 Dec partners.
The session will provide a platform for diverse constituencies to

discuss their ideas of what the Declaration means for Africa and
how it will be taken forward, particularly how their respective
constituencies will take it forward with concrete action. This is a
moderated panel discussion with representatives from government,
civil society, intergovernmental bodies and the United Nations.

I
In 30 years of the global AIDS response, the critical importance

of community responses for HIV prevention, treatment, care and
support has never been in doubt. Yet, how to define, evoke,
strengthen and support community responses remains surprisingly
unclear. Presentations will include recent evidence from four
Sub-Saharan African countries; reports from researchers and
implementers that outline their methodology and their interim
results, along with a UNAIDS draft practical framework for
understanding and selecting from among the different dialogue Monday
5 Dec
methods. The moderators will promote discussion on the practical
uses of these methods in combination prevention and treatment
programs; to strengthen community capacity and leadership; and to
promote health-enhancing social change. At the end of the session, Tuesday
6 Dec
participants will be aware of that community dialogue methods
“work” when they are selected and implemented strategically. They
will be clear on the range of different methods available, and the
Wednesday
strengths and limitations of each one. 7 Dec

Practices Against Key Populations on Walia
HIV Response in Africa
L’impact des lois et pratiques punitives
contre les populations –clés dans la
réponse au VIH en Afrique

From UNAIDS 2010 report, punitive laws, polices, practices, stigma
and discrimination can undermine effective responses to HIV.
Restriction of women’s equal access to education, employment,
property, credit or divorce; persistence of law enforcement
against sex workers, men who have sex with men and people who
inject drugs; and overly broad laws on the criminalization of HIV
transmission are social and legal barriers for key populations to get
access to HIV services. This particular session provides opportunity
to discuss the indirect and direct aspects of such barriers; the
necessary reforms in the context of universal access to HIV
prevention, treatment, care and support services; and experience
from Botswana.

8 Dec Applying the GIPA Principle Nyala
Comment obtenir des résultats

GIPA

Principles of GIPA aim to realize the rights and responsibilities of
people living with HIV, including their right to self-determination
and participation in decision-making processes that affect their
lives. In these efforts, GIPA also aims to enhance the quality and
effectiveness of the AIDS response, as countries scale up their
national AIDS responses to achieve the goal of universal access to
prevention, treatment, care and support services. This workshop
contextualizes the application of the GIPA principle within current
HIV-related programming. By exploring the role of people living
with HIV in Country Coordinating Mechanisms (CCMs), in National
AIDS Councils (NACs) and in the delivery of ART, PMTCT and HIV
education programs, the workshop will provide practical strategies
for program officers and managers, policymakers and advocates
to support them in getting tangible results from applying the GIPA
principle across their work.

Networks of people living with HIV and AIDS strives a continent,
indeed a world, in which women, men, children and youth living
with and affected by HIV and AIDS enjoy dignity, rights, freedoms,
opportunities and responsibilities without discrimination. The
importance of having networks is to improve the quality of life of
people living with HIV and AIDS, through strengthening national
networks and associations of people living with HIV and AIDS, co-
ordination, advocacy, and information sharing. Using small group
interactive exercises, large group discussions, role plays and
examples from workshop organizers, facilitators will draw upon
participants own experience, knowledge and ideas to help them
identify tools, strategies and approaches they need to mobilize and
strengthen communities especially PLHIV groups and networks
to meaningfully participate and increase access to HIV and STIs
services.
