Skills Building Workshops
Attending a Workshop – first come, first served!
To facilitate an effective transfer of skills the facilitators have limited number of participants for each workshop. Delegates must be at the door of each workshop 20 minutes before the scheduled start as seating will be limited to first-come, first-served.
About the Programme
The Skills Building Programme is a unique component of the conference, spanning the community, leadership and scientific programme. The programme also helps stimulate new and stronger partnerships for problem-solving related to the many different HIV-related needs. People share vital expertise with colleagues from other regions of the world to help overcome the many barriers to care, prevention and management of the epidemic.
Conference delegates have the opportunity to put learning into action. The workshops will use interactive, creative training methods on subjects of critical importance to those facing the realities of the AIDS pandemic today – whether they are a medical professional, researcher, politician, administrator, outreach worker, peer advocate, caregiver and/or a person living with HIV/AIDS.
Skills Building Workshop Selection Process
All skills building workshop proposals submitted to the Conference have been through a peer-review process carried out by an international Skills Building Reviewing Committee. The skills building workshop review period took place late February – mid-March 2006. Each proposal was reviewed by no fewer than three reviewers, and the notification to submitters will be done in early May 2006.
Thank you to all who submitted proposals the XVI International AIDS Conference!
A complete and searchable list of the AIDS 2006 Skills Building workshops is available online through the Programme at a Glance.
