Abstract

An important element of the socio-economic impact of HIV is how it disproportionately affects women and girls, in terms of their vulnerability to infection, constrained access to services and the additional household burden and care responsibility among others. The report utilises data from five country reports (Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia and Viet Nam) covering more than 72,000 household members in over 17,000 households. The analyses focus on comparisons between HIV-affected and non-affected households for impacts on women and girls regarding key socioeconomic issues: income, employment, revenues, expenditures, coping mechanisms, health, education, food security, family composition, pregnancy and stigma and discrimination.
