Bringing Science to Justice: Impact of the Expert Consensus Statement on the Science of HIV in the context of criminal law over the past five years (Poster)
Research findings on the five-year impact of the ‘Expert Consensus Statement on the Science of HIV in the Context of Criminal Law’, presented at the International AIDS Conference (IAS 2023). The research examined the impact of the Expert Consensus Statement on individual cases as well as broader law and policy outcomes in the five years since its publication and found that the statement remains relevant, accurate and extremely useful. Newer studies bolster the conclusions presented in the statement, reinforcing its overarching message that science does not support HIV criminalisation.
