The Royal Free and University College Medical School’s Migration Ethnicity and Sexual Health (MESH) Programme, in association with the Health Development Agency (HDA) will be running two one-day workshops on HIV prevention evaluation. These will be held in the first quarter of 2004.

The workshops are based on a learning from practice model, where participants are encouraged to share their ideas, reflect on their own experiences and learn from others’ practice of of evaluating HIV prevention activities.

Each workshop will examine 2 or 3 case studies, culturally specific to the African HIV prevention experince in the UK. The sessions will provide participants with an opportunity to explore challenges, problems and solutions and develop useful contacts and networks.
Both workshops will take place in central London and will run for a full day. Participants only need attend one workshop.
