Teams of top health economists, epidemiologists, and demographers wrote eighteen research papers examining a range of responses to HIV/AIDS in sub- Saharan Africa. 

Six key analyses, or ‘Assessment Papers’, are supplemented by twelve ‘Perspective Papers’. The body of research was released online on this website in September 2011 and published in full in RethinkHIV by Cambridge University Press.
