| Resumen: | Recognizing the importance of gender inequality, and particularly violence against women, in increasing women’s vulnerability to HIV, several international organizations and donors have prioritized the need to address gender inequality and violence against women within their HIV strategies. These include: the UNAIDS strategy (2011–2015); the World Health Organization (WHO) Global health sector HIV/AIDS strategy (2011–2015); the Global Fund to fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (GFATM) gender equality strategy and the gender strategy of the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) (5–8). The agreed conclusions of the 57th Commission on the Status of Women (2013) and the Political Declaration on HIV/AIDS (2011) also specify the need to address violence against women in the HIV response (9, 10). |
