Apreciados amigos,

Desde este privilegiado rincón de la Costa Dorada tarraconense, de finas arenas y mar tranquilo, os queremos invitar a disfrutar con nosotros de la luz de la primavera mediterránea en días de celebración de tradiciones bellas y arraigadas como el día de Sant Jordi, con las rosas y los libros como protagonistas, a la vez que compartimos y ampliamos nuestros conocimientos pediátricos sobre los adolescentes y sus problemas.

Esperamos vuestra participación activa con el envío de pósters sobre cualquier tema relacionado con la salud integral del adolescente: casos, experiencias, actividades, etc.

¡PLAZO AMPLIADO HASTA EL 15 DE FEBRERO!

Esperamos que ya os reservéis unos días para hacer ciencia y relaciones sociales, al lado del Mediterráneo, en este Congreso que, además, representará la manera más novedosa y enriquecedora de celebrar el día del “Libro = Sant Jordi”.

No podéis faltar a la cita. ¡Os esperamos en Salou!

Para más información sobre el congreso podéis consultar la web del SEMA, www.adolescenciasema.org, o enviarnos vuestros datos y dirección electrónica a sema2010@pacifico-meetings.com <mailto:sema2010@pacifico-meetings.com>

The International Harm Reduction Association
presents its
21st International Conference
‘Harm Reduction: The Next Generation’
Liverpool, UK
April 25-29, 2010

The Conference theme - The Next Generation - will be reflected throughout the conference programme and will embody:

• Young People – who are both directly and indirectly affected by drug use around the world and must be engaged in the global harm reduction and drug policy dialogue.

• New Populations – including regions such as Africa and Latin America, which have often been overlooked by harm reduction advocates and policies.

• New Interventions – including the need to address non-injecting substance use, and to move beyond a focus on opiates and develop effective responses for stimulant users and emerging drugs and trends.

• New Challenges – including the need to improve global resourcing for harm reduction, and to improve quality as well as coverage around the world.

This conference will present an opportunity to look back over the last twenty-five years and more and reflect on the successes and challenges that we have faced, in order to move forward with new knowledge and renewed commitment.

Register immediately! Delegate Fees will rise after 21 January.

IUSTI (Asia Pacific), is the largest branch of the International Union against Sexually Transmitted Infections, is entirely voluntary, and was founded in 1975. The parent organization, also voluntary, was founded in 1923 as the International Union against the Venereal Diseases and Treponematoses (IUVDT), and admitted into official relations with the World Health Organization in 1948. It remains on the roster of the United Nations Economic and Social Council.  IUSTI-AP hold biennial Congresses in the Region. Recently, they are usually held alongside national meetings of similar professional societies, in this case dermatology, and include optional satellite sessions for trainees in HIV/STI, run by an International panel of experts. Anticipated attendance at this conference-mostly doctors- is around 500.

It’s a lovely venue, and a varied program; to find information on both, please visit the Conference Web-site
