This year, we have a very strong delegation with expertise in development, public health, microbiology and law, among other areas. Continue reading International AIDS Conference Update Dear all, It is with deep regret, that I have to inform you, the 2010 TYN Summer Symposium is hereby cancelled.

Today was a really busy day all filled with meetings with country delegates and UN officials, Continue reading CSD: Day 4 It’s Wednesday, the third day of the CSD, and it feels like it should be at least Friday.

The atmosphere at the CSD seems to have lulled a bit although it is still as Continue reading CSD: Day 3 It’s only the second day at CSD-18 and I’m already feeling the impact of a twelve-hour work day—two caramel macchiatos too many, chocolate (more caffeine), lunch in the Delegate’s Dining Hall (if I’m lucky), and not much else.
