Can Frontier Technologies Accelerate Impact in Preventing HIV Transmission?

Join us for a 2018 International AIDS Conference satellite event as we explore how emerging technologies such as blockchain offer the potential to enhance HIV service delivery and quality care for people living with HIV. Whether it’s providing protected and accessible medical records, or improving the efficiency and targeting of donor funding, blockchain can be a powerful tool for social good.

Abt Associates, together with partners from IrisGuard, North Star Alliance, PEPFAR, Nike Girl Effect, and Jack Tanner of Jack and the Blockstalk will discuss piloting blockchain solutions, developing cross-sector partnerships and identifying new opportunities to scale programming.

Panel 1: What are the challenges associated with delivering HIV services, and how can they be solved with blockchain and frontier technologies?

Panel 2: What is blockchain technology, and how can it be used to reach the most vulnerable groups in the field?

Dr. Jane Thomason, Senior Global Advisor, Digital Transformations, Abt Associates will moderate the discussions.
