STD/HIV/AIDS Prevention

HIV/AIDS today has become one of the deadly diseases ever faced by mankind. Although prevalence rates are still low in Bangladesh, HIV/AIDS is an emerging public health risk that has the potential of significant negative impact on a broad range of socio-economic development indicators unless steps are taken to control its spread. Recognizing the importance of the issue, Peace Foundation has been intervening in the field since 2012.

Through the advocacy and sensitization of religious leaders, community leaders and policy makers, a general awareness has been created to prevent HIV/AIDS among youths, adolescents and IDUs.
