As part of its Brown Bag Lunch Series, OSI's Public Health Program presented a panel discussion on how U.S. policies toward needle exchange, abstinence, and sex work are undermining HIV prevention efforts abroad.

Participants included:
- Daniel Wolfe, Deputy Director, OSI's International Harm Reduction Development Program;
- Jonathan Cohen, Researcher, HIV/AIDS and Human Rights Program - Human Rights Watch, and Co-author of the Human Rights Watch report “The Less They Know the Better: Abstinence-Only HIV/AIDS Programs in Uganda”;
