About the Book
This insightful book examines the multiple factors that contribute to the vulnerability of young women to HIV/AIDS in India. It goes beyond biological and socio-cultural aspects, highlighting how the behaviors of women’s husbands or partners play a significant role in their susceptibility. Through primary data collected across five cross-cultural settings in India, the book underscores the urgent need to improve women's knowledge about HIV, build their capacity, and provide better access to STI/HIV services. It also emphasizes the importance of family and community support as key elements in reducing their vulnerability. With nearly half of new HIV infections occurring among those under 25, the book offers valuable strategies for addressing gender-specific challenges and promoting effective programs. The findings will be essential for researchers, policymakers, and program personnel involved in HIV/AIDS work in South Asia, especially those focused on gender-related issues.
