Making HIV trials work for women and adolescent girls

28 August 2008

UNAIDS and other partners, including the Global Coalition on Women and AIDS, the International Center for Research on Women and Tibotec Inc., have come together to create a movement to ‘Make HIV Trials Work for Women and Adolescent Girls’. The movement has been established to review past participation of women and adolescent girls in clinical trials; to assess how well HIV trials are collecting, measuring, analysing and presenting data related to health determinants and health outcomes in women or adolescent girls; and to identify barriers to including women and adolescents in trials. An action plan, developed to address these concerns, is being implemented.
