Tema: Across Africa, people dying prematurely from AIDS continues to pose serious challenges to the ability of African States to maintain efficient public institutions and deliver sound policies and promote the rule of law. HIV infection patterns are continually changing; economic realities are making treatment adherence difficult and resistance to current drugs are beginning to emerge. These challenges can be faced and surmounted through better appreciation of the country-specific epidemic, use of better data for national response good governance and stronger political commitments at all levels of society. Therefore, a comprehensive and enhanced response to AIDS must be at the center of development strategies. This report presents key messages and policy recommendations formulated with a role of the views of people affected and infected by AIDS.--Publisher's description.

Across Africa, people in whom significant resources have been invested are dying prematurely from AIDS that continues to pose serious challenges to the ability of African States to maintain efficient public institutions and deliver sound policies and promote the rule of law. HIV infection patterns are continually changing; economic realities are making treatment adherence difficult and resistance to current drugs are beginning to emerge. These challenges can be faced and surmounted through better appreciation of the country-specific epidemic, use of better data for national response good governance and stronger political commitments at all levels of society. Therefore, comprehensive and enhanced response to AIDS must be at the centre of development strategies. This retrospective report presents key messages and policy recommendations formulated with a crucial role of the views of people affected and infected by AIDS.

CHOICE Review

This report from the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa is a helpful compilation of HIV/AIDS-related statistics, case studies, and policy recommendations from across the African continent. One of the key messages is that cultural norms and practices are contributing to the spread of HIV. Thus, while the report focuses on governance--the ability of the state to administer public policy--it emphasizes that a multisectoral approach to prevention, treatment, and financing is required. The full report--and additional findings and recommendations from the Commission on HIV/AIDS and Governance in Africa--can be downloaded from the Commission's Web site at no cost. Summing Up: Recommended. Lower- and upper-level undergraduates, graduate students, and professionals/practitioners. K. H. Jacobsen George Mason University
