While biomedical HIV prevention offers promise for preventing new HIV infections, access to and uptake of these technologies remain unacceptably low in some settings. New models for delivery of HIV prevention are clearly needed. This commentary highlights the potential of person‐centred programming and research for increasing the cultural relevance, applicability and use of efficacious HIV prevention strategies.
