The overall objective of Nepal’s strategy for HIV/AIDS is to contain the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Nepal. The vision of the National Strategy is to expand the number of partners involved in the national response and to increase the effectiveness of the response. It will do this by focusing on activities within priority areas thereby optimising prevention and reducing the social impact of HIV/AIDS in the most cost-effective manner.
Nepal’s “National HIV/AIDS Strategy 2002-2006” has been designed to guide the expanded response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Nepal. An expanded response requires the commitment of all sectors, not just health, both within and outside government, and the coordinated support of external development partners. This strategy will promote and facilitate the coordination of their involvement.
