The 4th Africa Conference on Sexual Health and Rights will be held from February 8-12, 2010 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. You can find general information about the conference on their website, but what’s really great is that this year, positive sexuality is specifically mentioned in the conference objectives.
The Call for Abstracts lists the following sub-themes:
• Exploring positive sexuality and sexual pleasure as a strategy for combating HIV & AIDS.
• Pleasure, Positive Sexuality – What messaging for HIV & AIDS Prevention?
• Redefining Masculinities – How to engage men in positive sexuality.
There are also other objectives and sub-themes where pleasure can certainly fit in, though it is not explicitly mentioned.
The deadline to submit abstracts is September 30, 2009. You can read the full abstract submission guidelines by clicking here.
