This is a study of the legal and policy framework for HIV/AIDS, from a rights-based and gender perspective, in four South Asian countries - India, Bangladesh, Nepal and Sri Lanka.
It also maps existing laws, judicial decisions and law enforcement practices relevant to PLWHA or to the spread and impact of the epidemic. The aim, ultimately, is to identify priorities for law and legal policy reform in the South Asian region.
