This plan guides the largest public investment in HIV research, and OARAC members play a key role in its development.</p><h2>2026-2030: NIH Strategic Plan for HIV and HIV-Related Research</h2><p>OAR has initiated efforts across NIH Institutes, Centers, and Offices to establish HIV research priorities and develop the FY 2026-2030 NIH Strategic Plan for HIV and HIV-Related Research. The office aims to launch the new plan in the summer of 2025. OAR Senior Policy Advisor Rachel Anderson, Ph.D.; and OAR Senior Science Advisor CAPT Mary Glenshaw, Ph.D., M.P.H. &nbsp;described the current activities and outlined next steps toward developing the five-year plan. They requested input from OARAC and all interested parties via a <a href="https://www.oar.nih.gov/news-and-events/oar-updates/request-for-input-2024?utm_source=MC&amp;utm_medium=3-26+blog+email&amp;utm_campaign=OAR+RFI+2024&amp;utm_id=OAR+RFI+2024">Request for Information</a> that is open until March 28, 2024.</p><h3>A New Framework</h3><p>OAR has proposed a new framework for the next five-year strategic plan. The new framework reflects the research continuum and is based on several foundational principles relevant throughout HIV research:</p><ul><li>Research to identify and address HIV-related <strong>health disparities</strong> is essential to ensure that the benefits of scientific advances reach all people and communities affected by HIV, including groups that have historically been underrepresented and underserved.</li><li>Research must address the unique needs of people with HIV <strong>across the lifespan</strong>, particularly as people age with the virus, including those born with HIV.</li><li>Engagement and <strong>partnership with communities</strong> affected by HIV are essential at every stage of research.</li></ul><p>The proposed framework includes three broad research goals and one capacity-building goal that will be linked to corresponding objectives and topical priorities:</p><p class="text-align-center"><img class="img-fluid" style="max-width:100%;" src="/sites/default/files/OARAC_Summary_Webpage_Graphic_568x320.png" data-entity-uuid="4a37c6a6-2041-4632-9502-eead1d4a6ebf" data-entity-type="file" alt="Revised Framework: Stratefic Goals" width="568" height="338"></p><p>This updated framework allows for the increasing intersection of HIV prevention, treatment, comorbidities, and cure research across the continuum. Additional details are available via the <a href="https://videocast.nih.gov/watch=54113">OARAC meeting VideoCast</a>.</p><h3>Sources of Input and Timeline</h3><p>Input from a broad range of sources is critical to establishing research priorities for the next strategic plan. OAR subject matter experts and the NIH HIV/AIDS Executive Committee provided input on the framework above and remain involved throughout the process. Researchers, practitioners, community advocates, federal partners, and the public provide input through various engagements, including a <a href="https://www.oar.nih.gov/news-and-events/oar-updates/request-for-input-2024?utm_source=MC&amp;utm_medium=3-26+blog+email&amp;utm_campaign=OAR+RFI+2024&amp;utm_id=OAR+RFI+2024">Request for Information</a>, open until March 28, 2024.</p><p>OARAC, including leadership of NIH and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, plays a key role in the development of the plan. In addition to sharing direct input, OARAC members will be invited to participate in multi-sectoral task forces, convened by OAR and including experts from multiple sectors, to review and synthesize input and generate recommendations for research priorities.</p><p>Efforts to gather and synthesize input will continue through October 2024. OAR will then draft a plan and coordinate review with OARAC and across NIH, with the ultimate goal of launching the new plan in the summer of 2025. Stay tuned to the <a href="https://oar.nih.gov/">OAR website for continued updates</a>.</p><h2>Updates and Next Meeting</h2><p>The meeting closed with updates from:</p><ul><li>NIH advisory bodies, including the National Advisory Allergy and Infectious Diseases Council, National Advisory Mental Health Council, National Advisory Council on Drug Abuse, and NIH HIV/AIDS Executive Committee.</li><li>HIV Clinical Guidelines Working Groups of OARAC, which develop the <a href="https://clinicalinfo.hiv.gov/en/guidelines">HIV clinical practice guidelines</a> that inform clinical practice in the U.S. and around the world.</li></ul><p>Full details are available through the <a href="https://videocast.nih.gov/watch=54113">NIH VideoCast</a> and meeting minutes on the OAR website.</p><p>The next OARAC meeting will take place on June 20, 2024. An agenda and additional details will be available on the <a href="https://www.oar.nih.gov/about/oarac">OAR website</a>. OARAC welcomes the submission of public comments via email to <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#a2ede3f0e3e1cbccc4cde2cccbca8cc5cdd4"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="410e00130002282f272e012f28296f262e37">[email&#160;protected]</span></a>.</p></div>
