HIV Prevention Terminal Learning Objective Based on assessed HIV prevention needs and risk

factors at the individual and community level, participants will develop a strategy that uses evidence-based combination prevention (behavioral, biomedical, structural) approaches, national prevention priorities, and Peace Corps project frameworks to promote behaviors and services that prevent HIV infection and contribute to a reduction of community HIV incidence rates.

[Country] HIV Prevention Outcomes and Indicators Post adaptation – include outcomes and indicators

from project framework. Suggest the following format:

OUTCOME 1– Indicator 1– Indicator 2

OUTCOME 2– Indicator 1– Indicator 2

Global HIV Prevention Challenges In 2011, 2.5 million people were newly infected

( >7,000 new HIV infections each day). 50% of people living with HIV do not know their status. 40% of HIV-positive pregnant women did not receive

medicine to prevent mother-to-child HIV transmission 6.8 million are eligible for treatment but not on treatment. Women are at higher risk for HIV infection. HIV prevalence and incidence among groups like sex

workers, people who inject drugs, and men who have sex with men remain disproportionately high.
