Violence against women and HIV/AIDS: Setting the research agenda meeting report Geneva, 23-25 october 2000

---

The meeting report “Violence Against Women and HIV/AIDS: Setting the Research Agenda” (Geneva, 23–25 October 2000) outlines the global effort to identify priority research areas at the intersection of gender-based violence and HIV/AIDS. The report highlights how violence—whether sexual, physical, or psychological—significantly increases women’s vulnerability to HIV infection and undermines their access to prevention, treatment, and support services. Participants emphasized the need for multidisciplinary research that explores causal pathways, socio-cultural determinants, and systemic barriers affecting women’s health. The document also recommends strengthening evidence-based interventions, improving data collection, and integrating gender-sensitive approaches into HIV/AIDS policies and programs. Overall, the report provides a foundation for coordinated global research aimed at addressing both violence against women and the HIV epidemic in a comprehensive and rights-based manner.
