Since the beginning of the manifestations of the HIV / AIDS epidemic, the Brazilian government established a commitment to the promotion of universal access to prevention, diagnosis and treatment methods. The Brazilian response to the HIV / AIDS epidemic is grounded in structuring actions as part of the NHS, within a concept of health for all. This understanding is grounded in human rights, guaranteed by the NHS and the ongoing mobilization of civil society for its effective implementation, allowing to structure a program of universal access to antiretroviral treatment. The present study aimed from literature review, addressing the importance of public policy in relation to HIV / AIDS in Brazil. This study presented as a result a positive view of public policies on HIV / AIDS in Brazil.
