The Constellation as key speaker at Core Group Spring Meeting (26 April 2007)

Jean-Louis Lamboray, Chairman of the Constellation, was invited to present the AIDS Competence Process at the Core Group Spring meeting, on the 26th of April in Easton, MD. His presentation to the CORE group was made to about 30 persons. The Executive Secretary Karen Le Ban states that it "resonated" with the group.

Some comments from participant evaluations included:

• great - creative and practical
• very inspirational!
• very thought provoking
• great innovation to approach our work
• the best presentation
• great model for almost any project
• excellent, great speaker

Jean-Louis explains: "CORE Group members long for a holistic approach that is practical. They are frustrated with the current vertical approach consisting in one program per disease."

We are already getting follow up messages to explore collaboration.
