5th HEARD HIV/AIDS Workshop: Planning for HIV/AIDS in Sub-Saharan Africa


2002-10-28 to 2002-11-15

One of a series of International Policy Research Workshops held over the last eleven years in the UK, East Asia and Africa, the 5th HEARD HIV/AIDS workshop focuses on the need to anticipate the medium and long-term social and economic consequences of HIV/AIDS. We offer participants a unique opportunity over two weeks, to exchange ideas, review their experiences with strategies and tactics, and identify interventions appropriate to their local situation. Target Participants: The workshop is designed for senior professionals concerned with planning for the economic, social, demographic and human resource implications of the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Previous workshop participants have included economists and planners from government ministries; AIDS programme managers; donors; NGO programme managers; private sector representatives; local government officers; academics and other special interest groups. Other Information: A maximum of 40 places are available. The closing date for applications is 27 September 2002. There is the possibility of sponsorship of the course fee in a few instances. An application form can be requested: By phone: +27-31-260-2592 By fax: +27-31-260-2587 By email: freeman@nu.ac.za By mail: The Course Coordinator, HEARD, University of Natal, Durban, 4041, Republic of South Africa
