Behavior Surveillance Survey Reports (BSS)
 | HIV continues to spread in most countries of the world. Understanding of the virus is growing, but many behavioural aspects of the epidemic remain incompletely documented and poorly understood. Changes in HIV infection rates over time have been hard to interpret in many contexts because programmes frequently lack complementary information on changes in behaviour. National prevention programmes are sometimes designed with only limited understanding of the size of various populations vulnerable to HIV and the nature and determinants of risk among them. The impacts of prevention programmes on behaviour often remain uncertain because behavioural data is not collected or is seriously incomplete. Download this publication |
