August 2022

The August 2022 PATA newsletter highlights the key takeaways from the 24th International AIDS Conference, where PATA participated in a number of sessions and workshops. PATA chaired the symposium on “Jumping through the hoops: Reaching key adolescent populations through effective community interventions” as well as supported the Coalition for Children’s Satellite Session on “Smart Money: Donor commitments to children and adolescents affected by HIV in the COVID era”. PATA also supported the delivery of the “8th Workshop on Children and Adolescents with Perinatal HIV Exposure” and facilitated a virtual workshop on “Empowering Communities: Optimizing Development for Children and Adolescents with Perinatal Exposure to HIV”. PATA’s Me and My Health Provider Campaign Champions in Zambia and South Africa were also highlighted in a satellite session on “Doing the Right Thing: Mitigating HIV-related Stigma in Clinical Settings”. Find here the video featuring and celebrating one of the South African champions.
