#AIDS2026: Operationalizing Person-Centred Care in Community-Based Clinics in the Philippines

A roadmap can tell us where we need to go. But can we actually get there?

The global consensus on person-centred care in the HIV response offers an ambitious roadmap for transforming how HIV services are designed and delivered [https://doi.org/10.1002/jia2.70071]. But translating consensus into routine practice is where the real implementation challenge begins.

At AIDS 2026, we bring this roadmap into the realities of community-based HIV service delivery in the Philippines. Drawing from the experience of the SAIL Clinic network, the presentation explores a practical question: Can the global roadmap for person-centred HIV care be feasibly operationalized within a community-based organization; and what happens when global aspirations meet the realities of everyday service delivery?

The question is no longer simply whether person-centred care is desirable. We already know that it is. The more difficult question is whether it is feasible, implementable, and sustainable within real-world HIV care systems—and what needs to change when it is not.

Because the true test of a roadmap is not whether we agree with the destination, but whether it can help us navigate the realities of getting there.

See you with the International AIDS Society soon at AIDS 2026! aids2026.org
