“Jonathan Pearson, of Strategy 4ward Consulting, has provided excellent support to UNAIDS’ Strategic Information Department in recent years. He brings a considerable amount of experience in HIV and infectious disease epidemiology to his work. He joined a fast-paced, very complex project with multiple stakeholders and was able to disentangle our processes into a clear and innovative tool that helps countries use mathematical models to project their HIV epidemics.”
