Brief for parliamentarians on HIV and AIDS - Making the law work for the response to HIV

This brief introduces priority issues requiring action by parliamentarians towards a world with zero new HIV infections, zero discrimination, and zero AIDS-related deaths. It accompanies the IPU-UNAIDS-UNDP Handbook for parliamentarians, ʺTaking action against HIV and AIDSʺ. The Handbook and the Briefs call for bold parliamentary leadership and serve as reference volumes that legislators and their staff can consult for information and guidance on a wide range of issues relating to the epidemic.
