TAC on ART History

Family Health International created the TAC on ART in 2002 at the International AIDS Conference in Barcelona. FHI invited a diverse group of global HIV/AIDS experts in the area of care and treatment to advise FHI in their endeavors to provide ART in resource-constrained countries. The group meets on an annual basis.
