The Global Secretariat

The Global Secretariat has prepared the first internal newsletter that informs all of us what each of us doing, and we hope it will result in not only information exchange but also meaningful collaboration. We thank all of you for taking the time to share your news.

PAZDRAVLYAEM to Gregory and his team!! In Vienna, ITPC also witnessed a very successful reception of TMAP’s findings for MTT8. The one page information sheet was requested and printed several hundred times.

The Secretariat is planning the next governance meeting the transitional steering group at the end of September in New York, and this board will be discussing the selection of new members for 2011. The Secretariat is also serving as member of the working group for the WHO five-year strategic plan. In addition, we have been in discussion with NAM (www.aidsmap.org) on the use and adaptation of their treatment materials for greater community uptake. Nikos Dedes, coordinator for the World CAB, will be starting on 1st September, and launching some very exciting initiatives for the end of the year.

We hope that you will enjoy learning about how busy each of you are, and that you will continue to provide us with information that we can share with each other.
