XVI International AIDS Conference
Date: 13–18 August 2006
Place: Toronto
The theme of the XVI International AIDS Conference, "Time to Deliver" emphasizes that – while research to expand and improve our understanding of HIV is ongoing – the scientific knowledge and tools to prevent new infections and prolong life already exist. In over 400 sessions, meetings and workshops, delegates will explore the latest developments in HIV science, policy and practice, and look at the progress made to scale-up treatment, care and prevention.
Dr Anders Nordström, WHO Acting Director-General, will attend the conference along with senior and technical staff working on HIV issues at WHO.
