Impact
CoRIS works closely with policy-making agencies, such as the National Plan on AIDS (Ministry of Health). We are members of expert committees that provide advice for drafting recommendations and interventions.
Our goal is to maximise the impact of our research, which is why we are also pursuing a new line of work aimed at drafting political recommendations based on scientific evidence.
In 2019, we contributed to drafting the document “We need PrEP to stop HIV in Spain”. It was the first consensus document signed by all HIV-associated entities, where we urged the government to implement PrEP. This combined HIV prevention strategy was eventually approved on November 1st, 2019.
