The XVIII International AIDS Conference (a.k.a. AIDS 2010) is happening July 18-23 in Vienna, Austria. The biennial event is the foremost gathering of the worldwide HIV/AIDS community.

POZ and its sister site AIDSmeds are covering the avalanche of news from AIDS 2010. To watch video and for more information, click here.

I’d like to share a session from AIDS 2010 that caught my attention. “Men Who Have Sex With Men: Homophobia and HIV in Africa” was held on July 21.

The session took an in-depth look at how political, cultural and social barriers in Africa get in the way of providing men who have sex with men adequate HIV prevention and HIV care.
