SUMMARY:Global Health Justice\, Politics and Human Rights in the AIDS Pandemic – Getting to Zero
DESCRIPTION:Featured Speaker: Lawrence O. Gostin\, University Professor\, Founding O’Neill Chair in Global Health Law; Faculty Director\, O’Neill Institute for National and Global Health Law\, Georgetown Law; Director\, World Health Organization Collaborating Center on Public Health Law &  Human Rights; Co-Author of Public Health Law: Power\, Duty\, Restraint; Author\, Global Health Law \n\n\n\nMany individuals living with HIV/AIDS face social discrimination and human rights violations. Violations in the context of HIV include: the criminalization and enactment of laws that target people most vulnerable to or affected by HIV\, stigma and discrimination in the workplace and healthcare\, gender inequality\, and denial of HIV services.    \n\n\n\nLawrence O. Gostin lectures on the interconnected nature of global health and justice. He tracks the history of AIDS from a “socially stigmatized disease\, to one the United States and world embraced like no other epidemic…” He pays particular attention to the vital role social mobilization and civil society action played in transforming the world’s perception of the disease.  \n\n\n\nGostin also explores how basic public health interventions – such as HIV screening\, named reporting\, partner notification\, harm reduction\, and needle exchange – were ethically controversial during early implementation\, and provides policy solutions to ensure effective prevention\, harm reduction\, and treatment of HIV/AIDS.  \n\n\n\nYou can watch the full lecture here.
