In the past two decades, there have been many advances in HIV prevention. Several countries have demonstrated effective initiatives in preventing the spread of the virus. There are, however, many gaps in our efforts to prevent the spread of HIV. We need to improve access to effective prevention strategies as well as develop new methods of stopping transmission. This theme discussed the possibilities of enabling environments, looked at the most recent developments in vaccines, explored harm reduction aimed at reducing the spread of HIV in injecting drug users and looked at the prevention of transmission between mother and child, among specific vulnerable and marginalised groups, men, women and young people and the access to HIV/AIDS information and education.
