Global Review of HIV Prevention Programming for Young People In progress By LSHTM & UNICEF for the IATT on YP Isolde Birdthistle, Stefanie Dringus, Louise Knight, Susan Kassede
Overview Purpose: • to understand the content and scope of programmes and investments in prevention for young people • to guide IATT priorities for technical support and advocacy to key countries with generalized epidemics. Focus countries: 20 countries with HIV prevalence of >5% and large numbers of YPLHIV. Methods: • Content review of national strategic plans, implementation reports, NASA reports. • Validation through phone interviews with country focal points. • Review by global inter-agency steering team to agree on implications for support. Timeframe: By end August 2011. Strategic information products: 20 country briefs and 2 synthesis publications: • Prevention programming for young people: Availability of prevention interventions in high-burden countries and a detailed analysis of the coverage and reporting of the 3 major intervention areas related to the Business Case: comprehensive knowledge, testing and condoms. • State of funding for HIV prevention for young people in high burden countries: Absolute and relative expenditures on recent HIV prevention programming in high-burden countries, with a focus on programmes for young people.
Countries Included in Review Four phases (12 drafts in green available and shared with countries for validation): Group 1: Botswana, Lesotho, Malawi, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Swaziland Group 2: The Bahamas, Cote d’Ivoire, Central African Republic, Cameroon Group 3: Ghana, Nigeria,Namibia Group 4: Gabon, Mozambique, Zambia, Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Guyana
Report Structure Introduction: Country & Epidemiology Context in relation to young people Part A: Programme Response for Young People • Priority given to HIV prevention in young people (within national strategy) • Recent programming – scope, scale and quality (based on statutory reports) • Recent OVC and protection programming • Translation of evidence – application of approaches proven effective in influencing awareness and reported behaviour (e.g., curriculum based education, use of media, linkage to health services with community partnership, social norm change and support for behaviour change and service utilization). • Current status of Business Case results. • Partnerships • Laws, Regulations and Human Rights • Achievements and Remaining Challenges Part B: Financial Investments for HIV Prevention among Young People • Total expenditure on HIV/AIDS response and source of contributions • Absolute and relative expenditures on broad areas of HIV/AIDS response • Absolute and relative expenditures on specific categories of prevention • Young people as beneficiaries of spending on HIV/AIDS Part C: Quality and consistency of Data Reporting on young people Implications for prevention and technical support

Part A: Programme Response for YP Sample findings so far
Part A: Scale of Programmes for YP “The majority of people in need have access to” the following HIV prevention programmes...? AGREE or DISAGREE?(From NCPI 2010, Govt respondent)

Country specific findings • Specific country examples, e.g., of programmes that help or hinder achievement of the bold results are in each country brief
Part B: Financial Investments for HIV Prevention among Young People Sample findings so far
Part B: Funding for YP prevention Investments in broad areas of the AIDS response
Part B: Funding for YP prevention Investments in specific prevention activities
Part B: Funding for YP prevention Spending by beneficiary? example Cote d’Ivoire (2008) OVC: 3% Children and youth out of school: 0% Junior high / high school students: 0.47% General population of young people (15-24): 1.05% So, who are the main beneficiaries…? 1. General population not disaggregated: 50% 2. People living with HIV/AIDS, not disaggregated: 27%
By end of this review… • 20 Country-specific summaries, with implications for IATT • 2 Synthesis pieces to draw out the lessons across the high-burden countries and perhaps some insight...
By end of this review… ...to explain this...?
