This note presents a doctoral research project on the circulation and implementation of new HIV prevention strategies in Latin America (Argentina, Brazil & Mexico), particularly those related to Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP). To understand how PrEP became an affordable technology, it is necessary to locate the chronic health condition that gave rise to it, HIV, and the discourse regarding its prevention. The working hypothesis is that PrEP is a global health biomedical strategy highlighting the relationship between transnational intervention programs, government enrollment and consumers’ subjective experiences.
