HIV/AIDS 

Reaching out? Donor approaches to faith-based organisations in the reponse to HIV/AIDS (PDF, 322K)
A number of major donor agencies and governments are showing increased interest in the response to HIV/AIDS by faith-based organisations (FBOs). This briefing paper highlights the responses of FBOs, analyses current responses by donors to FBOs in the context of HIV/AIDS and makes recommendations for DFID and other donors to ensure that those working effectively at local level are provided with appropriate support.


Poor relations? PRSPs and the response to HIV/AIDS and children (PDF, 405K)  
HIV/AIDS is a key driver in increasing poverty and reversing development gains for children and their communities. This briefing paper analyses the vision and reality of Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers (PRSPs) in responding to HIV/AIDS, considers the future of PRSPs in increasing responses to HIV/AIDS, and makes recommendations for action for DFID and other donors to ensure that support for national PRSPs maximises the impact of resources in responding to HIV/AIDS.
