EDCTP Fifth Forum (12-14 October 2009): One World, One Partnership
EDCTP is excited to announce that the Fifth EDCTP Forum will take place in Arusha, Tanzania from 12 to 14 October 2009. The theme of the Forum is Fighting HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria: One World, One Partnership. The Forum will reflect the yield of 6 years of research integration, and it will showcase outcomes of both research and capacity strengthening activities in sub-Saharan Africa. It will be also an important platform for everyone involved in research into the three PRD’s to establish or reinforce cooperation and synergy.
The EDCTP investigators' meeting will be included in the Forum programme. Following the Fifth Forum on 12 to 14 October, several meetings of EDCTP constituencies will be held including: the Partnership Board (PB), the Developing Countries Coordinating Committee (DCCC) and the European Network of National Programmes (ENNP). EDCTP will keep in close contact with members of the constituencies about participation in the run-up to the Forum week.
In the coming months, EDCTP will launch and maintain the EDCTP Fifth Forum website. This website will give regular updates on the programme and on opportunities to join the Forum. EDCTP will use various channels to announce the launch of this website, but please check the EDCTP website regularly for any updates on the progress.
