Women and most vulnerable of our society face stereotyping and other social obstacles in efforts to prevent/overcome HIV/AIDS.UN Women joined forces with the Asia Pacific Interagency Task Team on Women, Girls, Gender Equality and HIV (IATT) and the Unzip the Lips campaign (http://www.unzipthelips.org) to produce a short video on women most at risk of, and most affected by, HIV in the Asia Pacific region. The video highlights the needs and rights of key affected women and girls in a concentrated epidemic. The video was shown to 260 delegates from 34 countries at the UN ESCAP Asia-Pacific High-level Intergovernmental Meeting on HIV/AIDS held in February 2012.

Produced by the Asia Pacific Interagency Task Team on Women, Girls, Gender Equality and HIV in partnership with the Unzip the Lips campaign.
