  1. HIV & AIDS Mainstreaming strategy and experience DED

  2. 3% of the total posts for development workers (DW) are earmarked for HIV / AIDS in high prev. countries Mainstreaming advisors (MA) in high prev. countries Since April 2001: ½ day HIV / AIDS MS for all DW in preparation courses pre-deployment Since Sept. 2001: 1,5 day training modul for DW in high prevalence countries (InWent) Since March 2003: 2 week training modul HIV/AIDS in Heidelberg for DW in HIV/AIDS postings (MS or specific) 2009 – 2010 participation in evaluation Mainstreaming in GDC in Zambia and Malawi Mainly external HIV / AIDS MSfor PO WPP, mainly AWiSA –(InWent & DED) 80 DW HIV / AIDS out of 150 DW in health sector of DED HIV / AIDS MS in DED

  4. „GDC platform“ is useful Synergies AWISA – GDC MS (training, instruments, methods) AWISA tools have been „gendered“ but now cannot be fully utilised Inwent reporting formats not matching national indicators HIV / AIDS + Gender: Adaption of methods and materials. (Checklist:http://data.unaids.org/Topics/Gender/GenderChecklist_en.pdf) WPP + Mobility as a challenge Poor integration of ART in WPP DED policies,f.e. „male circumcision“, not existing but should be in line with local context and within GDC Feedback: MS HIV / AIDS Meeting Malawi 9/2009 a

  5. Feedback: MS HIV / AIDS Meeting Malawi 9/2009 b Budget for HIV/AIDS activities 2010 Financial resources for HIV / AIDS are important / limiting opportunities Without basic budget DED DWs cannot do much 3% of sectoral budget for AIDS MS is often not available Personnel costs (600 - 1000 EUR/mo) for DED local staff, EFK - not sufficient and therefore is weakening the relevant and useful instrument Internal MS HIV / AIDS in DED/GTZ/KfW/wwF-workplaces is basically well introduced including access to PEP

  6. Feedback: MS HIV / AIDS Meeting Malawi 9/2009 c DW more comfortable with external MS activities than internal MS within/for POs To be successful, the management must be committed (applies for all stakeholders, POs, and DED/GTZ) How to check and how to improve „political committment“? „WS-mania“ and „per diem pest“ in MWI influencing PO‘s pseudo-committment for MS AWISA doesn‘t pay per diems. POs, or the company pays for training – not clear whether they pay per diems „Local capacities & mgmt. culture“ is under-utilised („they organise a burial with 400 guests in 3 days“) JIC/MOVE: concept and components are further developed and used in ZAM,MWI,TZA, NAM – report done in ZAM, tool-box under construction, dissimination and further use in coordination with GTZ & BzGA initiated in Germany

  7. Reviewed pictures for the six JIC stations Reviewed question cards Instruction Body Language station (Puzzle) Instruction measurements metal frames Instruction Protection station (dice) Manual for facilitator training Manual for Trainer of Trainer training (ToT) Memorandum of Understanding for JIC implementing partners (MoU) Criteria for potential JIC partner organizations JIC / MOVE

  8. Availability of MA supporting DW in PO „political committment“ - no lip service! Networks, technical meetings, platform Strategy available Instruments and expertise available MS Budget available AWISA as a source for methods, instruments, expertise Improved financial regulation for EFK (local experts) HIV / AIDS MS in preparation courses, VIP,DED, wwF More emphasis to the goal that DW dedicate 5 % working time to HIV MS Focus on HIV / AIDS specific activities is more realistic for DWs than WPP DED supportive / enabling MS

  9. DW supports MS in PO continuously / help organising activities „political committment“– no lip service! PO budgetting for MS AIDS committee available, readyness to manage, plan, monitor MS Readyness to talk about HIV AIDS Supportive National context / programme The „Committed President“ in the country Financial resources at implementation level available Ownership based on perceived benefits Evidence for advantages of MS HIV / AIDS (efficiency) Low level stigmatization (culture) AIDS services accessible (Condoms, ART, Txt OIs) PO supportive / enabling MS

  10. DED Concept: in high prevalence countries (ca. > 3 - 5 %) HIV / AIDS is a cross cutting issue All DWs contribute to HIV / AIDS activities at their workplace (approx. 5% of their working time), within the PO Capacity buidling, motivation and support through HIV / AIDS MA (mainstreaming plus specific HIV / AIDS activities in low prevalence countries (ca. < 3 - 5%) only specific HIV / AIDS activities “Knowyourepidemic“
