Source has updated the HIV and AIDS and Disability keylist.
Despite increasing awareness, the field of HIV and AIDS and Disability remains largely overlooked. It is essential that further research is completed for evidence-based policy and programming, and that policy and programmatic responses are integrated to promote inclusive practice and the mainstreaming of disability in HIV and AIDS development initiatives. This relates closely to article 25 of the Convention on the Rights of People with Disabilities.
The HIV and AIDS and Disability keylist aims to raise awareness on the issue of HIV and AIDS for people with disabilities, providing access to key documents, tools and resources to support development practitioners, service providers, policy makers and people with disabilities.
