This report from The Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) Task Force on HIV/AIDS Working Committee on Prevention, in collaboration with the Kaiser Family Foundation, provides an overview of the opportunities and challenges for HIV prevention efforts in "second wave" countries - countries that currently have low- to mid-level HIV prevalence but stand on the brink of major epidemics, such as China, India, Russia, Ethiopia and Nigeria. The report was authored by the co-chairs of the Task Force's Working Committee on Prevention, Jennifer Kates, vice president and director of HIV Policy at the Kaiser Family Foundation and Phillip Nieburg, senior associate at CSIS.
