I have been the Project Director at the Health Economics & HIV/AIDS Research Division (HEARD) in South Africa for the past four years, prior to that I worked at the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, in South Africa. I am also an active member of the Treatment Action Campaign (TAC). The thematic areas in terms of research and activism that I am most passionate about are: 1) AIDS & Gender, especially AIDS and Gender Based-Violence; 2) AIDS & Treatment; 3) AIDS & Democracy & Governance and 4) AIDS & Conflict Situations. I am hoping to be able to undertake work in the following areas: Advocacy & Lobbying; Policy & Applied Research; Policy Analysis and Programmatic Work. I will be moving to London in September, and having always lived in South Africa I am very keen to meet and work with other researchers and activists in London. I would value the opportunity to become involved in the many dynamic campaigns and programs currently underway in London. I feel there are many valuable lessons which I could learn from the activists and development workers in London, in turn I feel I have experiences and skills which I bring, that could compliment the activities already underway in London. e-mail: Willan@mweb.co.za or willans@ukzn.ac.za       Note: The information listed above was supplied by the individual listed.
