Structural Drivers of HIV Conference
Because people and contexts differ, structural approaches to HIV do not work the same way or have the same effect in all populations and settings. Therefore, responses need to take into account drivers of local epidemics. It is against this backdrop that the 3rd Structural Drivers of HIV Conference will take place to discuss, learn from and reappraise the contextual complexities that researchers and programmers across the HIV and AIDS field wrestle with when planning and implementing HIV programmes.
