HIV and AIDS in Haiti - January 2008

Haiti has the highest incidence of HIV and AIDS in the world outside sub-Saharan Africa, yet years of political chaos have left the country ill-equipped to tackle the epidemic.

This report examines the political, social and economic situation which has allowed HIV and AIDS to flourish, and explores the responses of the Haitian government, NGOs and the international community.

In findings that will resonate with the experience of HIV and AIDS in other developing countires across the world, the report shows that the deep, grinding poverty faced by millions of people in Haiti puts those living in poor communities at greatest risk, and argues that HIV and AIDS cannot be tackled.
