On the path to an AIDS-free generation, health care providers are the ‘Face of Care’ for all children, adolescents and young people, and play a critical role in the global HIV response. Despite this, their daily challenges, invaluable perspectives and contextual realities are often overlooked. The PATA 2023 Summit will give voice to those on the frontlines, whilst offering health providers opportunities to learn, engage, and access skills and resources in areas where they most reported a lack of confidence.
Our mission is to mobilize, strengthen, and build resilience in a network of frontline health care providers, facilities, and communities equipped to address challenges in paediatric and adolescent HIV service delivery in Africa.
