 City
AIDS Network is a key component of the solution to reach one of the
United Nations Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) of eradicating
HIV/AIDS by fostering the ownership and competency of local authorities
in responding to the pandemic in urban areas. Our mission is to provide
local authorities and local actors with the necessary training and
good practices sharing to improve their level of competence to combat
the HIV/AIDS pandemic with the help of peer cities and available centers
of competency.
"Successful experiences in the fight against AIDS as well as
the best solutions and treatment are to be found in urban areas. Taking
into consideration the number, skills and diversity of experiences
of participants at the City AIDS Americas conferences, I know that
your work has been useful and rewarding for all, that it has been
concrete and practical. I wish you every success in the application
of what youlearned. Be assured that the CIFAL Network, UNITAR  and
other colleagues from the UN system will accompany you along the way
towards achieving better sustainable and inclusive cities."
- Dr. Marcel Boisard, Assistant Secretary General, United Nations,
Executive Director of UNITAR
