Coming soon...Annual Evidence Update on Sexual Health: HIV/AIDS.
To coincide with World Aids Day on 1st December,
we will be publishing our 2010 Annual Evidence Update on HIV/AIDS - Behaviour
change in high-risk populations. Available from 29th November, this update
will identify and contextualise all high-level evidence and guidelines
published in the last 12 months on behaviour change interventions in high-risk
populations including ethnic minorities, gay men, injecting drug users,
commercial sex workers, and other populations. This year, we have teamed up
with several experts in the field of sexual health to evaluate the evidence.
