Rajasthan has a low HIV prevalence but high vulnerability. Most women and men receive information about HIV from television and radio. IEC (information, education, communication) aims to promote positive behaviors and develop communication strategies. The objectives of IEC include motivating behavior change, raising awareness, reducing stigma, and creating an enabling environment. Key IEC components include mass media campaigns, condom promotion, and mainstreaming HIV issues into various government agencies and corporations. Mainstreaming is addressing HIV/AIDS internally and externally in all sectors. Examples of successful mainstreaming in Rajasthan include incorporating HIV issues into government trainings and having corporate organizations install condom corners.
