HIV/AIDS mainstreaming: a definition, some experiences and strategies

This resource pack brings together experiences, ideas and strategies for mainstreaming HIV/AIDS into government sector ministries at all levels, whether national, regional or district. The pack uses experiences and ideas which come mainly from countries currently working through sector-wide approaches (SWAps) and may be of particular use to countries and sectors also using this approach.

The pack begins by outlining its development and purpose and providing background information on SWAps. It defines mainstreaming and presents a conceptual framework for mainstreaming HIV. Further chapters outline mainstreaming strategies, both internally in an organisation, and externally, looking specifically at the education and agriculture sectors.
