The main objectives of Phase II of the National AIDS Strategy, approved in 1993, include: working to stop the spread of HIV; providing care, treatment, & support for persons living with HIV/AIDS; and searching for effective vaccines, drugs, and therapies. This report presents findings of a mid-term review of Phase II. The purpose of this review was to examine whether all elements necessary for the success of the Strategy were in place & functioning effectively; to ascertain if information needed to evaluate its success was available or being collected; to collect information about the Strategy from a cross-section of key non-government stakeholders to be used as a baseline for a final evaluation; and to determine whether any mid-course corrections to the Strategy were necessary. Review findings are presented in four sections covering the following: overall & internal co-ordination; implementation; the balance among Strategy activities; and information availability & collection. Appendices include information on the review methodology.
