SUMMIT DAY 3

27 MARCH (TUESDAY)

THEME: Health Awareness and HIV-AIDS
Poor health debilitates the health of nations. The biggest threat to global peace, sustainable development, and sustenance of structures of accountability is HIV-AIDS. The real “war against terror”, calling for a true “coalition of the willing”, should be the global war against HIV/AIDS. Hitherto, however, the HIV/AIDS debate has been marked by more hysteria than enlightenment because people have been failing to speak frankly and honestly to one another. The Summit will look at the role of the media in helping people who hold different and sometimes opposing views find common ground and eliminate the conspiracy of silence and stigma.
