23 The Five Myths Low HIV prevalence doesn’t pose a real threat
AIDS is very much a male disease in South Asia Girls in South Asia are protected by Social-culture norms and marriage ABC alone will solve all the problems Girls won’t need to know much about sex

24 Fact of HIV/AIDS Epidemic in the South Asia
Asia Pacific is home to some of the fastest growing AIDS epidemics in the world Estimated 8.2 million people infected by HIV as of end 2004 Vast and diversified epidemics - low national HIV prevalence rates and concentrated to generalized local epidemics

25 Low prevalence  low risk in Bangladesh
9% are IDU Rickshawpulle rs (76% married) 69% Visit MSM IDU FSW (46% married) (40% married) 33% 34% Visit Visit FSW FSW FSW This slide shows risk behavior in Bangladesh and the interactions between sex work, injecting drug use, men who have sex with men and rickshawpullers, a group of general population males. It is clear from this figure that all of these populations are closely linked in Asian settings. Similar data is seen around the region in the at risk populations. For example in Cambodia 40 percent of men who have sex with men had sex with a female partner in the last 6 months. These interactions are complex and if we don’t control the epidemics in these higher risk populations, we will face extensive HIV spread in the general population. (9% married) 2% are IDU 1% are IDU Source: Bangladesh BSS

28 When prevention messages miss the point
Abstain from sex Be faithful Condomize Reality Rape and forced sex, even within marriage – Women do not choose “Faithful” women infected by their partners (her situation, not behaviour, is risky) Coercion and forced sex, lack of knowledge – women cannot negotiate ABC approach insufficient

29 The Global Coalition on Women and AIDS -Key areas of focus
Preventing HIV infection Reducing violence against women Protecting property ownership and inheritance rights Ensuring equal access care and treatment Supporting improved community-based care Promoting access to new prevention options Supporting on-going efforts towards universal education for girls- make sure girls’ complete secondary school
