The HIV Center's International Portfolio
The HIV Center's international agenda particularly focuses on
South Africa, Namibia, and Brazil, countries in which we have
established research and community partnerships and a funded record
of research initiatives. At the same time, we are expanding to other
regions, such as Nigeria, China, Argentina, and Mexico, with
feasibility, pilot, and training programs. The HIV Center's global work is
facilitated and supported by its Global Community
Core. The
AIDS International
Training and Research Program (AITRP) at Columbia University
provides advanced training in epidemiology, behavioral science,
ethics, and basic science of HIV/TB for fellows from Southern
Africa. HIV Center faculty have also been involved in many aspects
of the global response to the AIDS epidemic, including advocacy and
policy, responses. The
MAC AIDS Fund Leadership Initiative is a one-year training program designed
to help cultivate emerging leaders in South Africa who will make a major
contribution to HIV/AIDS prevention advocacy at the local, regional, or national
levels. The focus of the program is on reducing the spread of HIV and the impact
of AIDS by addressing the role of gender inequality.
