Question to the Department for International Development:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, pursuant to the Answer of 26 February 2016 to Question 27367, in which countries her Department has integrated HIV and sexual reproductive health and rights programmes.

The UK puts the empowerment of girls and women at the heart of everything we do. We are the second largest funder of HIV prevention, care and treatment, and have pledged up to £1 billion to the Global Fund. In 2013 an adolescent girl was infected with HIV every two minutes - this is not acceptable, so this is a priority for us with international partners.

Examples of our approach and countries which DFID has integrated HIV and sexual reproductive health and rights programmes can be found in “Towards Zero Infections-Two Years On” and on the department’s development tracker, both available on DFID’s website.
