We’re pleased to announce that our long-term allies in the fight against HIV in Mali, Dr. Koné, HIV specialist at the Hope Center Clinic; and Dr. Tounkara, GAIA’s National Director, shared GAIA’s research at the International Symposium for HIV and Emerging Infectious Diseases (ISHEID) in Marseilles, France!
In fact, your support helped us create the success stories that these doctors were able to share at the conference. During our 10 years of HIV prevention in Sikoro, over 15 thousand pregnant women received HIV testing! Dr. Koné was asked to lead a discussion on this research at the ISHEID conference. This was his first time traveling outside his home country of Mali, so it was a fantastic opportunity to meet his international colleagues in the realm of HIV/AIDS prevention.
With your help, we are embarking into our second decade of HIV prevention in Mali! Let’s reach new heights together!
