The 2011 Caribbean HIV Conference: Strengthening Evidence To Achieve Sustainable Action will sharpen the focus on HIV in the Caribbean, the region with the world's second highest adult HIV prevalence. In 2008, approximately 240,000 people in the region were living with HIV, 20,000 new infections occurred, and 12,000 deaths resulted from AIDS-related illnesses (UNAIDS).
Over the course of November 18–21, 2011, a wide range of Caribbean HIV stakeholders will assemble again to build on earlier successes and to demonstrate the synergistic results of regional cooperation and collaboration.
The conference is expected to attract 2,000–2,500 participants and will highlight scientific research findings, implementation lessons learned, skills-building tools, and networking opportunities. The audience for the conference includes individuals living or working in the Caribbean, such as:
people living with HIV
members of vulnerable groups
researchers and clinicians
allied health care professionals
caregivers
patient advocates
advocates for social justice and health parity
members of community- and faith-based organizations
regional and international governmental representatives
policy analysts and decision makers
civil society and regional media representatives |

Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS)
With an annual budget of US$95 million and a staff of 139 professionals, UNAIDS is a modest-sized programme with a substantial impact. The UNAIDS Secretariat operates as a catalyst and coordinator of action on AIDS, rather than as a direct funding or implementing agency.
