HIV Prevention in New Zealand

NZAF HIV prevention initiatives are based on robust scientific evidence and epidemiological and behavioural surveillance. The NZAF seeks to change the risk behaviours of the groups most at risk from HIV, through increasing condom use and testing for HIV and STIs.

HIV Prevention Plan 2009-2014

The New Zealand AIDS Foundation (NZAF) aims to achieve its vision of a world without HIV and AIDS through its mission of preventing the transmission of HIV and supporting those affected by HIV to maximise their health and wellbeing. In the 25 years of the HIV epidemic in Aotearoa New Zealand, the landscape the NZAF works in has changed. The NZAF HIV Prevention Plan 2009-2014 marks the first comprehensive review of NZAF HIV prevention programme delivery for many years.

HIV Prevention in the Pacific

The NZAF works to uphold the dignity of, and reduce discrimination related to, the sexual and gender diversity of all Pacific people. We have a clear view that all people have the right to live a life free from discrimination and prejudice.
