Important note to all Presenting Author

The ICAR scientific committee firmly believes that language is a powerful tool in shaping beliefs and influencing behaviours, particularly in the context of addressing the stigma surrounding chronic infections such as HIV and viral hepatitis. We urge conference attendees to prioritize person-centred language and be mindful of how their language and materials align with this principle. To assist in this effort, we recommend the adoption of UNAIDS-endorsed terminology, such as referring to people as “living with HIV” rather than “HIV-infected”. Together, let us promote inclusivity and respect for all individuals affected by HIV and other chronic infections.
