Notice of Public Meeting of the President's Emergency Plan for
AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) Scientific Advisory Board
SUMMARY: In accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA),
the PEPFAR Scientific Advisory Board (hereinafter referred to as ``the
Board'') will meet on September 14-15, 2011 at the House of Sweden
Event Center, 2900 K Street, NW., Washington, DC 20007. The meeting

The Board serves the Global AIDS Coordinator in a solely advisory
capacity concerning scientific, implementation, and policy issues
related to the global response to HIV/AIDS. These issues will be of
concern as they influence the priorities and direction of PEPFAR
evaluation and research, the content of national and international
strategies and implementation, and the role of PEPFAR in the
international discourse regarding appropriate and resourced responses.
Topics for the September 14-15th meeting will include an update on
PEPFAR-funded evaluations, discussions on the policy relevance of the
recent results regarding treatment for prevention, and recommendations
to the Ambassador on the future direction of evaluation and research
within PEPFAR.
The public may attend this meeting as seating capacity allows.
