First African AIDS Vaccine Programme (AAVP) Forum

2002-06-03 to 2002-06-04

The African AIDS Vaccine Programme (AAVP) is a network of scientists,working to promote and facilitate HIV vaccine research and evaluation in Africa, through capacity building and regional and international collaboration. The principal objective of this programme is to ac- tively involve African scientists and communities in all stages of HIV vaccine development and evaluation. The AAVP was initiated in June 2000 when a group of African scientists adopted the Nairobi Declaration: An African Appeal for an HIV/AIDS vaccine, pledging to use their personal and collective commitment and expertise in the activities of the programme. AAVP is strongly supported by WHO and UNAIDS. For more information please contact Marie-Louise Chang Tel: +41-22-791-3576 Fax: +41-22-791-4865 mailto:changml@who.int
