Knowledge of AIDS Network Workshop 1: The Archives of AIDS
University of Washington, Seattle, April 3-5, 2024
As HIV/AIDS was first identified in the early 1980s, experts – including scientists, activists or members of communities impacted by AIDS – quickly began creating records and archives of the pandemic. Members and allies of impacted communities have been key participants in the documentation of this pandemic and the activation of this archive for scholarly, creative, and political work.
