Organized and hosted jointly by the International HIV/AIDS Alliance (IHAA), International Civil Society Support (ICSS) and RESULTS, the meeting aimed to develop strategies to increase support for, and the ultimate implementation of, a currency transaction levy (CTL) whose revenues would be used to expand and improve global health.
