Acknowledgements
This volume draws primarily on papers delivered at the `Global Govern-
ance of HIV/AIDS: Intellectual Property and Access to Essential Medi-
cines' Conference held at the University of Liverpool on 8 October 2008.
The conference was the product of a multi-continent research project
initiated by the Peace and Governance Programme of the United Nations
University (UNU) in Tokyo and jointly implemented by the UNU, the
Institute for Medicine, Law and Bioethics (IMLAB) at the University of
Liverpool, UK, and the Intellectual Property Law Center at Drake
University Law School in Iowa, USA. The papers included in this
volume have since been updated to reflect developments after the
conference. We wish to thank all the conference participants, including
those speakers who were unable to contribute to this volume.
We are grateful to IMLAB and UNU for providing the much-needed
funding for this conference. Thanks are also due to Yoshie Sawada at
UNU and Kayte Kelly at IMLAB, both of whom provided invaluable
administrative support for the conference, their contributors and project
coordinators. In addition, we acknowledge the crucial assistance of Kalle
Huebner, an intern at UNU in 2009; Vishwas Devaiah, PhD (Liverpool);
as well as Ben Booth, John-Paul McDonald, Laura Seward and David
Fairclough at Edward Elgar Publishing. Finally, we thank our home
institutions for providing generous institutional support and making this
project possible.
