Crafting a comprehensive literature review on HIV/AIDS poses significant challenges due to the vast

amount of research available, the complexity of the subject matter, and the need for thorough
analysis and synthesis of existing literature. Conducting a literature review requires extensive time,
effort, and expertise to ensure accuracy, relevance, and coherence in presenting the current state of
knowledge on the topic.

One of the primary difficulties in writing a literature review on HIV/AIDS is navigating through the
abundance of scholarly articles, research papers, reports, and other sources spanning various
disciplines such as medicine, public health, sociology, and psychology. Sifting through this wealth of
information to identify key studies, findings, and trends demands meticulous attention to detail and
critical evaluation skills.

Moreover, synthesizing diverse perspectives, methodologies, and findings into a coherent narrative
requires a deep understanding of the subject matter and proficiency in academic writing. Writers
must not only summarize existing literature but also analyze and interpret findings, identify gaps or
contradictions, and propose avenues for future research.

Additionally, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of sources while avoiding plagiarism is paramount
in literature review writing. Proper citation and referencing according to academic standards are
essential to acknowledge the contributions of other scholars and maintain academic integrity.

However, development aid channelled through women empowerment interventions has had limited
impact than anticipated. This result is not limited by region; worldwide the effect of a HIV diagnosis
was almost instant isolation within a society. In a person with a healthy immune system, common
diseases can be fought but that is not the case in a person with AIDS. Educating about the facts and
myths surrounding HIV has allowed for a better quality of life for those infected and their friends
and families. There are two conditions required to having AIDS; if that person is HIV positive and
has one or more diseases prone to people with AIDS or has a white blood cell count less than 200
(World, 1999). That prognosis has changed for the better; not only are people living longer with HIV,
they are able to hold off the progression to AIDS longer as well. The secondary objective of the

stakeholders. Times have changed. Research and time have allowed the world to better understand
the importance of education. The University requires all members of its community to follow

for prevention and early detection. Most countries across the globe have made significant gains
through education and early detection while others have floundered. Sadly, the goal of the United
Nations Millennium Development Goal 6 will not be met. Individuals in the United States suffered
during the early history of the virus; Ryan White, a thirteen-year old boy with HIV, who was not
allowed to attend public school was one example of the lack of education available (HHS, 2014).

poverty levels of the region. The first page of the PDF of this article appears above. Education has

fact they are not. The clubs have allowed people already infected to have the social support as well
as the government support to address the issue of isolation. The research usually pairs HIV and AIDS
together as one, which implies it is one and the same. It also showed that the area with the least

the lack of government support in the areas of the medical and social systems. People do not have
access to prevention or treatment and there is not a system in place to address the stigma associated
with HIV so early detection is not pushed. The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is the virus

Fear made overrode any common sense, especially since the medical community was looking for
answer also. People identified with HIV were given less than five years to live. Countries have dealt
with the virus in different ways with differing results however the goal is the same. Many European
countries started intensive programs to educate the public. Finally, global support has lead to the

questions related to the nature and impact of the epidemic, as well as questions related to the
