Anti-HIV missions to six countries

    ABIDJAN

    Two teams of consultants have begun visits to six countries in Africa to undertake situation analysis and develop projects for joint advocacy against HIV/AIDS, the International Partnership against AIDS in Africa (IPAA)reported in its latest bulletin.

    The missions, part of a UNFPA-led advocacy initiative within the the IPAA, began on 24 July and are scheduled to end on 28 August. The visits - to Burkina Faso, Cote d’Ivoire, Ethiopia, Ghana, Malawi and Tanzania - have been organised by UNFPA in consultation with the UNAIDS Secretariat.

    The IPAA comprises the seven sponsors of UNAIDS (UNICEF, UNDP, UNFPA, the World Bank, WHO, UNESCO and UNDCP), the UNAIDS secretariat, bilateral development agencies, NGOs, and the private sector.
