 AB    The National AIDS Committee established in 1987 realised that an
       effective AIDS prevention program must be supported by a relevant
       multidisciplinary and well coordinated research programme. Research is
       needed to study the spread of HIV infection in the community, define the
       factors which place people at risk, study the natural history and
       pathogenesis of HIV/AIDS, monitor the personal, social and economic
       impact of HIV/AIDS, and study the efficacy of various intervention
       strategies. A Sub-committee was formed to promote and coordinate
       HIV/AIDS research in Indonesia. Around 60 research projects has been
       implemented in Indonesia to study the epidemiology of HIV/AIDS,
       understand knowledge, attitudes and behaviours related to HIV/AIDS and
       develop interventions to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS. This paper will
       review the important findings of the research projects and their
       relevance for policy development to prevent HIV/AIDS in Indonesia.
