The Dublin Declaration was developed during the conference, ‘Breaking the Barriers: Partnership in the fight against HIV/AIDS in Europe and Central Asia’, which was held in Dublin, Ireland, in February 2004. The declaration provides a framework for mounting an effective response to HIV/AIDS in the prisons of Europe and Central Asia. The principles and articles outlined within are based upon recognised international best practice, scientific evidence, and the fundamental human rights of people in prison and the obligations of States to fulfil those rights.
