The Speaker Ms.Shyamala Nataraj will speak on:
Equipping the Vulnerable Children
Ms. Shyamala Nataraj is a well-known pioneer in HIV/AIDS prevention and care in Tamil Nadu and in India. She started her career as a journalist with the Indian Express and went on to write on When HIV was first identified in India she proposed an innovative solution to the World Health Organization (WHO), to mainstream it within the development sector. The idea was accepted and she was elected an Ashoka Fellow in 1992. In the same year, she set up the South India AIDS Action programme (SIAAP), to develop and lead the response to HIV. Today, India and Tamil Nadu are globally recognized as models of HIV prevention and care. In 2005, she was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, as one of a group of 1000 women globally recognized for their contributions. In 2006, she received The Lifetime Achievement award from the Government of Tamil Nadu.
Taking a break from activism, she went away to Australia to pursue a Masters and later a PhD in public health. Since her return, she has turned her attention to effective solutions to enable young people from vulnerable backgrounds to become more capable, responsible, and productive as individuals, members of families and communities, and citizens of India.
