This series of report cards aims to increase and improve the programmatic, policy and funding actions taken on HIV prevention for girls and young women.

The report cards summarise the current situation of HIV prevention strategies and services and contain an analysis of five key components that influence HIV prevention, namely:

1. Legal provision
2. Policy provision
3. Availability of services
4. Accessibility of services
5. Participation and rights

The cards build on global policy commitments, particularly those outlined in the Political Declaration on HIV/AIDS from the 2 June 2006 High-Level Meeting, to follow up on the United Nations General Assembly Special Session on AIDS (UNGASS).

Kenya

As a result of the increased scale up of HIV related services, the overall HIV prevalence rate has decreased in recent years.

However, young women and girls in Kenya remain particularly vulnerable to HIV, due to persistent gender inequality and a lack of economic opportunities for young women and girls.
