The Global Criminalization Scan is an international tool used in documenting laws, judicial practices and case studies around the criminalisation of HIV transmission. The Network of Zambian People living with HIV, (NZP+) through the Leadership through Accountability programme adapted and implemented the Criminalisation Scan in Zambia in 2009. Although there are no known prosecutions specific to HIV transmission to date the government may be considering developing criminalisation legislation.
