The
Dialogue Space
at IHRA provides the opportunity for all conference
participants to engage in the sharing of information, knowledge and open dialogue addressing
issues of harm reduction and HIV/AIDS, providing local and regional voices with a global platform.
The dialogue space will be the main venue for grassroots organisations and civil society to meet
and discuss with all other stakeholders involved in harm reduction how they can partner to
support locally-driven community development efforts. The space aims to fill the gap between
high level policy making and the realities of addiction and drug use.
The Global Fund, as the leading funder of harm reduction programs globally, is taking the lead in
organising this dialogue space,
located in the exhibition area
, in partnership with the UNAIDS
family, aiming to work with both community and technical partners.
The Global Fund and UNDP would like to thank all
delegates who participated in the
dialogue space
.
The next
dialogue space
will be at the ICAAP
conference in Bali, we hope to see you there.
