The 13th Paediatric-Adolescent Treatment Africa (PATA) summit was held in Johannesburg, South Africa, on 23-25 October. It brought together more than 200 delegates, including 110 frontline health providers from 15 sub-Saharan African countries. The theme was Towards an AIDS Free Africa – Delivering on the Frontline and brought together policymakers, programme implementers and frontline healthcare providers to share best practices in case finding, differentiated service delivery and resilience-building. The three days were centred around the theme: “Find, Treat and Care” with plenary presentations, examples from the country teams and facilitated discussions among stakeholders.
