title: An international perspective on the impact of AIDS and national AIDS education policies and programmes.
abstract: During the past decade, the shadow of AIDS has lengthened to touch the lives of many millions of people around the world. The AIDS epidemic is now a global phenomenon with significant social, economic, demographic, legislative and political implications, as well as crucial practical concerns for civil rights, public health and development. This paper considers the growing global impact of AIDS, and attempts a comparative review of national responses, in terms of policies and programmes for AIDS prevention through education and health promotion.
