In November 1999, Dr Amadou Diarra was appointed senior director of Bristol-Myers Squibb's Secure the Future Initiative. Launched 18 months ago, this public-private partnership is seeking, together with the governments of nine African countries, innovative ways of reducing the transmission and the impact of HIV/AIDS, especially on women and children, through interventions involving medical care, research, community outreach, and education. Diarra, who was brought up in West Africa, had previously worked for about a decade with the company's Africa division. Last November Bristol-Myers Squibb joined four other major pharmaceutical manufacturers and five intergovernmental agencies in supporting the UNAIDS initiative for Accelerating Access to HIV Care, Support and Treatment. Diarra played a significant role in laying the foundations for Bristol-Myers Squibb's commitment to both of these public-private partnerships. He shares with John Maurice his views on what it takes to make a successful partnership of this kind.
1999年11月，阿马杜·迪亚拉博士被任命为百时美施贵宝公司“保障未来倡议”的高级主管。该倡议于18个月前启动，作为一项公私合作项目，正与9个非洲国家的政府共同探寻创新方法，通过涉及医疗护理、研究、社区推广及教育的干预措施，减少艾滋病毒/艾滋病的传播及其影响，尤其是对妇女和儿童的影响。在西非长大的迪亚拉此前已在该公司的非洲部门工作了约十年。去年11月，百时美施贵宝与其他四家主要制药厂商及五个政府间机构共同支持联合国艾滋病规划署加速获取艾滋病毒护理、支持与治疗的倡议。迪亚拉在为百时美施贵宝参与这两项公私合作奠定基础方面发挥了重要作用。他与约翰·莫里斯分享了他对建立此类成功合作所需条件的看法。
