| description |
The overall development objective of the
World Bank's Multi-Country HIV/AIDS Program (MAP) for
the Africa Region is to increase access to HIV/AIDS
prevention, care, and treatment programs, with emphasis on
vulnerable groups. The specific development objectives of
each country project are to be drawn from the national
strategic plans. Accordingly, "satisfactory evidence of
a strategic approach to HIV/AIDS" is one of four
eligibility criteria. This is to be demonstrated by "a
coherent, national, multi-sector strategy and action plan
for HIV/AIDS prevention, care, and treatment that has been
developed through a participatory approach using social
assessment techniques. It could also be demonstrated by
having a participatory strategic planning process underway,
with a clear roadmap and timetable" Accordingly, the
objective of this review is to assess the extent to which
national HIV/AIDS plans represent a strategic approach to
addressing the epidemic. Evidence of a strategic approach
includes: clear goals; explicit priorities; systematic
planning, targets, timeframes, and indicators; clear plans
for monitoring and evaluation; clearly specified
implementing actors and responsibilities; and cost estimates
and strategies for resource mobilization. Additional
characteristics of a strategic approach are the extent to
which plans are efficient, equitable, relevant, and
feasible. National HIV/AIDS strategic plans from 21 of the
23 Sub-Saharan African countries participating in the MAP as
of July 2003 are reviewed. Table 1 lists the countries,
their populations and GNP per capita, estimated HIV
prevalence (given in the plans), and timeframes of the
plans. Appendix A1 lists the national strategies reviewed. |
