03 October 2011The report reviews social and behavioural research on HIV, viral hepatitis and sexually transmitted infections. Stigma remains a major issue for people affected by HIV, hepatitis C or drug dependence.

This report is the 13th in our annual series reviewing behavioural data that inform responses to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), viral hepatitis and other sexually transmissible infections (STIs) in Australia. It aims to further the development and evaluation of prevention strategies, the understanding of individuals’ experiences of treatment and the social processes that shape the practice and experiences of individuals and communities.
