Plug for Condoms

As a representative from an organization that focuses on condoms as part of a comprehensive approach to HIV prevention, I am surprised at how few sessions have focused on condoms and the need to bring product distribution to scale and how to effectively change condom use behaviors.  There are two sessions this afternoon and evening that focus on condoms, and aside from a few posters, as far as I'm aware this is the only forum to foster discourse on condoms:
