SPEAKING UP
A regular column reacting to HIV news and developments. From AIDS-Free World’s Director of Communications Sohaila Abdulali:
THE DEBATES
Every approach to HIV/AIDS has pros and cons, but most are thrashed out behind closed doors. In The Debates, introduced here with a few initial topics, we’ll move those discussions into the public domain.
- A UN agency for women
- Questioning the statistics

THE AGENDA
AIDS-Free World takes on the most critical issues affecting populations from Africa to the Caribbean, Asia and beyond. The Agenda items listed so far offer a sampling of topics we will probe in this section.
UN WOMEN'S AGENCY
People want and deserve to be kept informed about the newly approved UN women's agency, now under construction. Follow AIDS-Free World's written exchanges with the UN Deputy Secretary-General, and check this spot for news about the global search for the woman who will lead the new agency, and other developments as they unfold.
