veloping High Impact Leadership Skills on HIV/AIDS" as part of
the Leadership Program at the XV International AIDS Conference

speakers who are champions in their fields of expertise in pro-
moting substantive leadership on HIV/AIDS. We are inviting lead-
ers from different sectors including NGO, political, education,
media, urban, health, entertainment, economic, transport, IT and
of different levels of leadership e.g. high level, implementers,
and grass-root leaders to be speakers during this session.

Speakers will be expected to share their experiences-both chal-
lenges and successes in promoting leadership on HIV/AIDS for 10
minutes and take part in a discussion with the audience for 15
minutes. The session is designed to be discussion oriented and
will seek to allow a free exchange of ideas, discussion and de-
bate to deal with issues head on. We are also inviting experts
who will serve as discussants during this session.
