Mainstreaming HIV Prevention in the Military: A case study from Cambodia

By Dr. Tan Sokhey

In response to the HIV threat in the military, the Royal Cambodian Armed Forces,
in partnership with local and international non-governmental organizations and
international agencies, developed a comprehensive strategy for reducing HIV
vulnerability in the military through education, empowerment and
capacity-building as part of a larger national HIV prevention strategy.

This case study documents the Cambodian defence sector's effort in building HIV
resilience and reflects both constraints as well as lessons learned on factors
contributing to an effective HIV prevention programme in the military.
