20,000 Participants Expected in Toronto, Canada in August 2006

Toronto [6 March 2006]—With the 25th anniversary of the first reported cases of AIDS approaching, organizers today announced the theme and focus for the XVI International AIDS Conference (AIDS 2006) to be held in Toronto, Canada from 13-18 August 2006. The Conference theme of Time to Deliver underscores the urgency of bringing effective HIV prevention, care and treatment to communities the world over, as well as the need for increased accountability on the part of all stakeholders.

“The AIDS 2006 theme recognizes the need to accelerate scientific research while also dramatically expanding access to the knowledge and tools currently available to prevent new infections and prolong life among people living with HIV/AIDS,” said Conference Co-Chair Dr. Helene Gayle, President of the International AIDS Society (IAS) and President and CEO of CARE USA. “The challenge at hand is to garner the resources and the
collective will to translate existing knowledge and experience into broadly available HIV prevention and treatment programs.”

Toronto is the third Canadian city to host the International AIDS Conference; it was held in Montreal in 1989, and in Vancouver in 1996. It was in Vancouver that Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART) was first announced. Over the past decade, access to HAART has led to dramatic declines in AIDS-related mortality.
However, today the vast majority of the estimated 40.3 million people living with HIV/AIDS worldwide, particularly those in the developing world, continue to be without access to these treatments. The linkage between prevention and treatment cannot be overstated when worldwide only one in five individuals at risk for HIV infection has access to prevention information and only one in ten people living with HIV has been tested and knows their serostatus.

“As the largest and most diverse gathering of people engaged in the global response to HIV/AIDS, AIDS 2006 will do more for AIDS education and awareness than any other single event,” said Conference Co-Chair Dr. Mark Wainberg, Chair of the Toronto Local Host Board and Director of the McGill University AIDS Centre.
“Toronto and Canada are proud to serve as host, and to provide a venue for leading scientists, as well as community, government and other leaders, to chart the way forward to achieve real, meaningful progress in defeating AIDS.”

I CONGRESO INTERNACIONAL DE TRADUCCIÓN ESPECIALIZADA1st Conference on Specialized Translation July 27-29, 2006 University of Buenos Aires (UBA), School of Law Av.Figueroa Alcorta 2263 In a borderless world, where thousands of translators and potential clients meet virtually to do business, those who know only a little about many things can no longer compete with those who know a great deal about only a few subjects. To be competitive, translators must specialize and offer top-quality, extremely accurate services. IT tools are essential, but no more essential than a foundation of solid professional training and a specific area of knowledge on which translators can focus. Limiting one´s working fields through specialization is a way to optimize quality, and thus generate new business opportunities. The aim of the 1st Conference on Specialized Translation is to enhance the translator´s proffesional training and promote the acquisition and development of specializations. We hope to receive input from colleagues worldwide in order to share relevant knowledge about the specialty areas chosen for this event. Specialty Areas Economic/Financial Legal Scientific IT and localization Other thematic areas Quality standards Spanish Tools Education and training <a href="http://www.traductores.org.ar/congreso2006/info.htm#information">http://www.traductores.org.ar/congreso2006/info.htm#information</a>
