International iPMTCT Summit 2014
In partnership with the Hainan Bureau of Health and China’s National Center for Women and Children’s Health, ZeShan organized an international roundtable summit on the Integrated Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission (iPMTCT) of HIV, HBV and syphilis, which was hosted in Hainan Province in January 2014.
Focusing on public-private partnerships and innovative practices for high-impact outcomes, the Summit brought together a blue-ribbon panel of experts, scholars, practitioners, policy makers, and representatives from major health organizations, including WHO China, WHO Western Pacific Region, UNICEF, UNAIDS, Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center, and Chinese Center for Disease.
Participants shared insights on lessons learnt and best practices in this field, and debated over the unique challenges of effectively implementing iPMTCT in culturally and demographically diverse settings. Prompted by Hainan’s relatively low HIV prevalence and very high HBV rate (over twice the national average), the discussion inevitably tilted toward exploring effective PMTCT of HBV.
Following the Summit in Sanya, participants went on a field trip to visit local maternal and children’s hospitals and clinics in surrounding villages. Local health officials and practitioners shared their experiences in and views on the healthcare system, in particular focusing on effective approaches to iPMTCT operation in low HIV and high HBV settings.
Emerging as a result of this Summit was the agreement among the UN China network to promote China’s iPMTCT practice around the world as innovative practice, which was decided at the coordinating committee meeting of UN health-related organizations in China held the week following the Hainan Summit.

Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit…Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
When an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
