The drum beat is getting louder as we edge closer to the International AIDS Conference (IAC) 2016 Youth Satellite Session which will be held in Durban on the 18^th of July 2016. The Youth Satellite Session seeks to create a platform for young people to meaningfully engage within the context of the conference, with stated objective of catalyzing local, regional and global actions to end HIV. The key objective of the session is to have a key actionable message of commitment that will lead to an AIDS free Africa.
