Abstract

Lessons from the past 30 years point to three key objectives for behaviour-change HIV prevention efforts:

  • address the broader structures shaping behavioural risk and vulnerability
  • tailor responses to the factors affecting the target population's vulnerability
  • ensure that multiple factors can be addressed when needed

This paper provides definitions of key terms and concepts to help in the operationalization of such approaches.
