Targeted research strategies
This theme focuses on achieving goals like 95-95-95, integrating HIV services with primary healthcare and advancing treatment and prevention technologies, access considerations in resource-limited settings (potentially linking to decoloniality and indigenous health knowledge), and the growing concern of HIV and non-communicable diseases (NCDs).
The focus here is on utilising digital health tools (telehealth, AI, machine learning) for improved care, data analysis for effective response, as well as technological advancements for broader prevention and treatment reach.
