Overview

HIV/AIDS and gender issues refers to the study of how sex and gender shape vulnerability to HIV infection, access to prevention and treatment, and the social and health outcomes of those living with the disease. Biological factors, social norms, economic dependence, unequal power in relationships, stigma, and limited access to education and healthcare can all contribute to differing risks and experiences between women, men, and gender-diverse populations. In many settings women and girls bear a disproportionate burden of HIV as a result of gender inequality and socio-economic disparities, while gendered expectations also influence men's health-seeking behavior and prevention practices. Understanding these dynamics is essential for designing equitable, effective prevention programs, ensuring fair access to antiretroviral therapy, and addressing the structural drivers of the epidemic. Research in this area intersects with broader topics in HIV/AIDS prevention, including knowledge and perceptions of the disease, preventive lifestyle and behavior, sexual health education, and sociocultural barriers to care and support. Clinical Research In HIV AIDS And Prevention provides a peer-reviewed, open-access venue for work addressing the prevention, treatment, and social dimensions of HIV/AIDS, including questions of gender and equity in the epidemic.
