Scenario building - planning for a future with HIV/AIDS 

A tool for political and socio-economic dialogue. 

SD are running a special policy research workshop in collaboration with Prof Tony Barnett of the LSEAIDS, the multidisciplinary department at the London School of Economics.

AIDS presents long term problems - both in its impact and in its possible solutions.  Taking the long-term view on the impacts of the epidemic, of policy decisions and through engagement with key stakeholders will be critical to ensure a dialogue on the political, social and economic basis. Building scenarios enables such a dialogue. The workshop is aimed at senior professionals in the private and public sectors and from NGOs. It will guide participants through a methodology of building and using scenarios as well as how to work with existing scenarios.  The sessions will be interactive and strengthened by the high-caliber of experienced and skilled participants.
