From 30 May to june 2nd 2006, Helem participated in United Nations General Assembly Special Session on HIV/AIDS (UNGASS) at the UN headquarters in New York City.

We, non-governmental organizations and experts from 15 countries of the Middle East, North Africa and South/Southeast Asia , believe that the 2006 High Level Meeting on HIV/AIDS constitutes an occasion for reaffirming and enhancing the commitments made by our governments and the international community at the UNGASS 2001.
