Product Innovation & Availability

Bringing effective prevention options to those who need them most

Innovative biomedical prevention products recently approved, or within the development pipeline, have the potential to provide prevention options that give people greater self-determination. Daily oral PrEP is the pioneer of these innovations and demand is growing. The lessons we learn from the rollout of daily oral PrEP will lead the way as we develop and roll out new interventions.

We work in support of:

• Timely, efficient, effective and affordable prevention options
• Getting products faster to market and to scale

We focus on:

• Understanding the products’ users
• Compiling and analyzing market data
• Sharing information
• Bringing effective prevention options to those who need them
