From Paper to Practice: Implementing WHO's 2010 ART Recommendations in
Zambia

After the 2009 release of WHO’s Rapid Advice for HIV treatment in
adults and adolescents, Zambia launched a broad-based effort to update
its national treatment protocols. The Ministry of Health succeeded in
creating an efficient and inclusive review and revision process for the
guidelines, which they began implementing in 2011.

Namibia’s Prevention Planning Process: Successful Collaboration for a
National Combination HIV Prevention Strategy

In many countries facing high-prevalence, generalized HIV epidemics,
the development of a national prevention strategy is difficult and often
does not produce coordinated and comprehensive results. In Namibia's
prevention planning process, these challenges were addressed using a
combination prevention strategy tailored to local epidemiology and
demographics. The development process was furthered by a strong sense of
cooperation between Namibia's Ministry of Health and Social Services and
staff at UNICEF and UNAIDS, as well as CDC and USAID (funded by
PEPFAR).
