Abstract:
This policy paper serves to update Hivos’ policy on support for AIDS programmes in the South, as it has been applied since the early 1990s. The first reason for this update is the growing impact of AIDS on socio-economic conditions in large parts of the countries in the South, where AIDS has been disastrous for the development process. Moreover, the context and field in which players operate in AIDS prevention in the South has clearly changed over the years, although governments continue to take insufficient responsibility in providing prevention and care facilities. The third reason for this update is the obvious need to co-ordinate AIDS policy with the sector policy that Hivos introduced in the mid-1990s.
