Francais: La conference de Monaco
The Monaco kick-off meeting
, together with the summit planning meetings, took the first steps
towards the development of a unified PLHIV advocacy agenda. The
conference was highly evaluated by participants, as has been detailed in the
Monaco Report March 2008. The ultimate goal of the Monaco kick-off
meeting was to facilitate a process to enable delegates to develop
through the various processes to inform the outcomes of the LIVING 2008
summit as listed below.
- An understanding of the key themes of the advocacy agenda for the PLHIV Movement
- Consensus on priorities in each key theme we want to tackle
- Action plans on how to address these priorities
- A concise overall statement of issues and actions
- New skills to enable and equip them to implement the advocacy agenda
In order to reach these outcomes, the facilitators mapped out a
process from Monaco leading up to, into and after the Mexico summit.
This process comprises:
- Programme development for the Living 2008
- Participation at the IAC 2008 in Mexico
- A parallel ongoing moderated e-consultation by all groups and partners.
The e-consultation
discussions will be based on the four themes formed by the working
groups during Monaco. The next stage of action for PLHIV
networks and partners is providing input into the e-consultation on any of
the four themes.
Now you can participate in the online pre-consultation for Living 2008 at healthdev.net. To join the discussions please send an

Doctors Helping Police Denounced for Breaching Medical Ethics, Human Rights
(New York/Cairo April 7, 2008) - As five more men face trial in Cairo on April 9 in a widening and dangerous police crackdown on people living with HIV/AIDS, 117 organizations worldwide working in the fields of health and human rights condemned the crackdown and the participation of medical personnel.
In a letter to the Health Ministry and the Egyptian Doctors’ Syndicate, the groups, led by Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, said that doctors who helped interrogate men jailed on suspicion of being HIV-positive violated their own medical ethics, and their conduct led to a breach of trust in a privileged relationship.
