The IAS Conference had the sole purpose of connecting politicians and scientists to work together to respond to HIV/AIDS.

The IAS Chair continued by saying, "Adopting the latest scientific advances and how they can best serve the most affected people around the world will be at the heart of all discussions and presentations at IAS 2023."
Vaccines and the treatment of HIV/ AIDS, the management and prevention of HIV infection, discrimination, the use of antiretroviral drugs (PrEP), the risk of HIV infection, and increased sex drive were the main topics of discussion.
H.E. Ieng Mouly also met with Ms. Sharon Lewis, Chair of the International AIDS Society, and spoke about the progress and success of the fight against HIV/AIDS in Cambodia under the wise leadership of Samdech Techo Hun Sen, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Cambodia.
