HIV Prevention in New Zealand

The NZAF HIV Prevention and Communications Group is responsible for preventing the transmission of HIV in Aotearoa New Zealand. In the 24 years of the HIV epidemic in Aotearoa New Zealand, the landscape the NZAF works in has changed. Homosexual Law Reform, the internet and the advent of antiretroviral therapies are a few of the significant events that have changed the environment that the NZAF first confronted in 1984.

International Development

The NZAF has a commitment to the Pacific because of the level of migration between Aotearoa New Zealand and the Pacific, the impact of HIV on Pacific communities within Aotearoa New Zealand and in Pacific countries, and the serious responsibility that NZAF has taken in regard to its position within the Pacific.
