General Summary or Background

South Africa has the largest HIV epidemic in the world withan estimated million people living with HIV (PLHIV), of which 310,000 arechildren aged 0-14 years and million are on treatment. The current HIVprevalence is ; adult HIV prevalence is Approximately 230,000 newHIV infections occur each year of which 50,000 are among children andadolescents 0-19 years. New HIV infections are disproportionately higher amongadolescent girls and young women. Given the rate of new infection, South Africahas yet to achieve “95-95-95” targets and the goal of HIV epidemic control.

Annually, nearly one-third of all new HIV infections inSouth Africa occur in youth ages 15-24 years, with adolescent girls being up toeight times more likely to be infected with HIV than their male counterparts.Although HIV prevention interventions ranging from structural to biomedical(, Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis) have been scaled nationally throughinitiatives such as the Determined, Resilient, Empowered, Aids-free, Mentoredand Safe (DREAMS) Initiative and She Conquers, HIV incidence among this prioritypopulation remains high due to a myriad of factors - early sexual debut,age-disparate relationships to mitigate the impact of high youth unemployment,high rates of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and sexual andgender-based violence (GBV). While HIV prevention interventions have beenconcentrated in districts and provinces with the highest burden of disease andunmet needs, to achieve epidemic control, South Africa will need to scale upand intensify targeted HIV prevention interventions nationally.
