Australian Development Gateway

The Australian Development Gateway (ADG) strives to support members of the development community in their efforts to reduce poverty and enhance sustainable development in the Asia Pacific region. The site has been created with participation from members of government, private, academia and non-government organisations. User feedback mechanisms have been incorporated to guide future directions of the site. The site is optimised for low bandwidth access to enable the widest participation throughout the Asia Pacific region.

HIV and AIDS in emergency settings

In normal times the devastation brought about by HIV/AIDS is grave enough. But when an emergency strikes - war, civil strife, man-made or natural disasters, and epidemics - the potential for HIV infection can increase significantly.

Responses to increased HIV/AIDS vulnerability in emergency settings are now being integrated into humanitarian and relief agency work plans at the earliest possible moment of an emergency.
