*Time to Deliver on Gender and HIV/AIDS*
This summer, more than 25,000 people from around the world gathered in
Toronto to share new knowledge, experiences, and good practices in the
worldwide battle against HIV/AIDS. Despite a wealth of research on the
role of gender in the pandemic, despite inspiring advocacy work by and
for women living with HIV/AIDS, the needs of women and girls and gender
considerations continue to be stunningly underrepresented in research,
advocacy, and political agendas. This issue of the /Research Bulletin/
aims to redress this lack of attention to issues of gender and HIV.
Beginning with a backgrounder on the ways in which sex and gender
function to make women and girls susceptible to HIV, this issue offers
the reader material to both better understand the epidemic and to begin
to think through our responses to it.
