The university continues to produce important research on HIV and AIDS across all disciplines, as well as socially responsive initiatives and key HIV/AIDS management strategies. And when it comes to incorporating HIV and AIDS into the formal curriculum, there are many examples to build on.

Dresses made from condoms were some of the attractions as UCT students massed on Jammie Plaza for an HIV-awareness and prevention event hosted by the HIV/AIDS Co-ordination Unit (aka HAICU) on 9 February. KFM presenter Kia Johnson in a key message to students, spoke about HIV prevention, getting tested, knowing your status and making informed decisions.

UCT surgeon Dr Elmi Muller and her team have received world attention for their historic transplants of kidneys from HIV-positive donors to HIV-positive recipients. Since carrying out the world's first such transplant in October 2008, the team has performed nine similar procedures. 
UCT hosted a five-day HIV/ART mentorship programme for primary care nurses from 17 to 21 May. What makes the Mentorship Programme for Nurses in Primary Care in HIV/ART Management course stand out is that besides being taught the latest guidelines on the rollout of antiretroviral medication, they're encouraged to share this knowledge with their colleagues.
"The thing is they may not treat me as they are treating me now if they find out that I am HIV-positive." This was one of the comments by a UCT student living with HIV, and read out at the Candlelight Memorial Concert on 15 April.
