Meeting Description
The 14th International Workshop on HIV & Women took place in a hybrid format on 12 -13 April 2024 in Washington D.C., United States.
The International Workshop on HIV & Women has now completed its 13th year and continues to evolve. It is an outstanding opportunity for healthcare providers, researchers, government, industry, and community representatives to discuss, debate, and further their knowledge on the issues related to women and HIV.
The format of the workshop enables attendees to learn from world-leading HIV experts and discuss the issues, gaps, and opportunities for further learning and research. Many of the attendees continue to participate each year and have formed valuable relationships and partnerships that have led to collaborative projects.
The enthusiasm and dedication of the participants is palpable throughout the workshop. The debates and roundtables are important vehicles to discuss current issues and challenge stigma.
Over the years, the number and quality of submitted abstracts have continued to improve. The workshop also provides a forum for early-career investigators to present their work and personally meet with experts they view as mentors and inspirations. The workshop considers both local and global issues and the information learnt in one setting is often translated into the other.
