International AIDS Vaccine Initiative

International AIDS Vaccine Initiative

IAVI is a global not-for-profit organization working to speed the search for a vaccine to prevent HIV/AIDS, focusing on developing countries. Founded in 1996 and operational in 22 countries, IAVI and its network of scientific partners research and develop vaccine candidates. IAVI also works to assure that a vaccine will be globally accessible.

A preventive vaccine would elicit immune responses to prevent people who are not infected with HIV from becoming infected or developing AIDS.
