About us
Who we are
The International AIDS Vaccine Initiative (IAVI) is a non-profit organization whose mission is to translate scientific discoveries into affordable, accessible public health solutions. Since its founding in 1996, IAVI has provided scientific, research and development, and policy leadership to address the needs of communities and key populations at risk for HIV infection around the world. In addition to these core efforts, IAVI is also now working with partners to address other urgent unmet public health needs, including developing vaccines for other infectious diseases.
