World Community Advisory Board Update 

The fifth WCAB meeting was held in Nairobi July 2nd-6th 2011 with the theme of “Challenges and Opportunities: Achieving 15 million on treatment by 2015”. The attendees were a mix of experts  and activists, both people living with HIV and their supporters from all over the world. A key area of focus was on implementation of the WHO Guidelines on ARV including the phase out of d4T-based regimens, the barriers to scale-up of treatment access and lower prices on better treatment options.
