Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, the APCOM Community Summit 2020 brought together delegates, speakers, community members and participants from across the Asia-Pacific Region for the first-ever hybrid conference, convened using a combination of face-to-face and virtual conferencing. The impact of COVID-19 on people living with HIV and key populations, has been felt across the region, revealing glaring inequalities and amplifying the need for better co-ordination among the community. However, despite the challenges of the past year, the community response to the pandemic has been inspirational, demonstrating the vital role of community-based organizations as lifelines for people living with HIV and key populations, as well as the wider community.
