Development of Communication Materials for HIV/STI
The Need
The World Health Organization (WHO) is committed to “ensuring healthy lives and promoting the well-being at all ages” in recognition of good health and wellbeing as “essential to sustainable development”. The prevalence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) across Southeast Asia and the Pacific is the reason for alarm, and necessitate the crafting of responses at the regional level.
