International AIDS Conference
- International AIDS Conference
Education, networking and the promotion of best practice are essential to enhancing the response to HIV/AIDS. IAS conferences provide opportunities to share experience, and increase the knowledge and expertise of professionals working in HIV/AIDS.
The International AIDS Society (IAS) is the custodian of the International AIDS Conference, the largest regular conference on any health or development issue. These prestigious conferences provide a unique forum for the interaction of science, community and leadership, and strengthen an evidence-based policy and programmatic response to the epidemic. The conferences also provide an opportunity to intensify political and financial commitments to AIDS, and include the largest international conference scholarship programme in HIV/AIDS.
These conferences started in 1985 in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. They were held annually until 1994 when they became biennial. Below is the list of conferences and their venue:
