Linking Sexual and Reproductive Health and Gender Programs and Services with Prevention of HIV/STI

The purpose of this document is to offer readers a strategic proposal developed by experts from the Region. This proposal seeks to make a significant contribution to the efforts already under way in several locations to optimize health care, including sexual and reproductive health promotion and care with a gender perspective that explicitly approaches HIV and other STIs as problems requiring immediate attention. The proposal not only stresses the importance of collaboration among programs, services, providers, and community members to better tackle the challenges posed by these issues but proposes actions that can lead to a better quality of life for the individual, the family, and the community.
