USAID/Indonesia HIV/AIDS expanded response strategy 2002-2007 (pdf 431kb)

Recent data indicates that the incidence of HIV/AIDS is growing in Indonesia at a more rapid pace than previously seen. The number of new HIV cases in 1999 more than doubled those reported in 1995 and the cases reported in 2000 doubled the 1999 cases.

As such USAID has revised its strategy to provide an expanded USAID response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Indonesia.

This revised strategy (2002-2007) takes into account a significant number of challenges and opportunites that currently face Indonesia. Highest priorities in the expanded Indonesia strategy include development of effective surveillance systems; finalisation of the HIV/AIDS test kit analysis, establishment of national test procedures and support for VCT testing in each intervention area.

10 key sites chosen for implementation of the strategy are: Papua, DKI Jakarta, East Java (Surabaya/Malang), North Sulawesi (Manado/Bitung) and Riau (Pekanbaru and the Riau Islands). West Java (Bandung), North Sumatra (Medan), Central Java (Semarang), South Sumatra (Palembang), and the Maluku Islands (Ambon).
