International Workshop on HIV & Women 2024

The 14th International Workshop on HIV & Women took place in a hybrid format on 12 -13 April 2024 in Washington D.C., United States.

The 15th International Workshop on Women & HIV will take place in a hybrid format from 11-12 April 2025 in Barcelona, Spain.

The International Workshop on HIV & Women has now completed its 14th year and continues to evolve. It is an outstanding opportunity for healthcare providers, researchers, government, industry, and community representatives to discuss, debate, and further their knowledge on the issues related to HIV and women.

The format of the workshop enables attendees to learn from world-leading HIV experts and discuss the issues, gaps, and opportunities for further learning and research. Many of the attendees continue to participate each year and have formed valuable relationships and partnerships that have led to collaborative projects.

The enthusiasm and dedication of the participants is palpable throughout the workshop. The debates and roundtables are an important vehicle to discuss the issues and challenge dogmas.

Over the years, the number and quality of submitted abstracts have continued to improve. The workshop also provides a forum for early-career investigators to present their work and to personally meet with experts they view as mentors and inspirations for their work. The workshop considers both local and global issues and the information learnt in one setting is often translated into another.

We encourage you to consider joining us in 2024!
