The Big Picture: Macroeconomics, Women and HIV/AIDS

This documentary argues that economic policy plays an integral role in responding to the needs of women infected with and affected by the HIV and AIDS pandemic. It explores the way in which an enabling environment could be fostered with policy instruments that respond to challenges faced by women, especially those living in poverty. It particularly focuses on women and girls who lack education, have limited or no access to healthcare, or live in conflict zones, but also looks at some of actions already taking place at the grassroots and government levels.
