HIV-AIDS: A Social Threat
To Our World And Community
A timely conference on vital issues of global concern
Co-sponsored by
the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay
and St. Norbert College
Friday, April 15 and Saturday, April 16

A conference on international social justice
“HIV-AIDS: A Social Threat To Our World And Community” is an extraordinary gathering of local and international experts to explore the threat of HIV-AIDS to the international community and the local greater Green Bay community. Expert panelists will connect local interests to the global community and examine links between them.

This conference is organized as a tribute to the late Gary Weidner, who died in January 2003 at the age of 54. Chicago attorney Robert Pavich proposed an international social justice symposium to honor the memory of Weidner, who helped represent a defendant before the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia in the Hague, Netherlands, in 2002. The 2005 symposium is the second of a series.
