Current Scenario

• 1 Case in 1986 - 5.134 million by 2004• Second only to South Africa • Globally, 1 out of every 8 persons living with

HIV is an Indian • HIV prevalence among adult population at

0.92%• 6/35 states > 1% prevalence• 111/604 districts > 1% prevalence

4

Changing Face of Epidemic

Movement from …• High risk groups to general population• Urban to rural areas• High prevalence states to all states• Feminisation• High vulnerability of youth

5

NACP III : Priorities and Thrust Areas

• Project to Program mode

• NACO’s changing role: implementation agency to a program catalyst

• Strengthening the state level response: thru organizational restructuring and capacity building

• Building on the gains of NACP II and reaching out to the district level

• Priority for prevention and strengthening of care, support and treatment programs

6

NACP III: Priorities and Thrust Areas

• Increased focus on vulnerable states and NE states

• Up-scaling and Improving service delivery

• Establishing robust M&E system at all levels

• Increased attention on mainstreaming and partnership development

• Evidence based planning, program implementation and financial management

7

Assumptions….Prevention

• Targeted interventions are still a valid approach (i..e. saturation of high risk groups and “partners” )

• Public and private sector will play a key role in increasing compliance with national guidelines on blood safety, injection safety and infection control

• All vulnerable populations will be fully aware of HIV transmission and control

• Highly populous states like UP, Bihar, Rajasthan and MP will show greater ownership and stronger response

8

Assumptions….• Migrant groups will have increased access to quality

interventions at source and destination

• Public and corporate sectors will have HIV budget

Care, support and Treatment

• Increased access and stigma reduction will lead to greater use of services (VCTC, PMTCT, STI and ART)

• Sustained availability of resources for drugs, diagnostic facilities

• Public and private sector will play a key role in providing quality, care and support services at all levels

• Families and communities will provide services for PLHIV

9

AssumptionsCapability Development

• NACO and SACS fully staffed with qualified professionals and minimal turnover

• States will invest in human resources and institutional strengthening as a priority

• Civil society will be fully engaged in prevention and care programs

Monitoring and Evaluation Systems

• Stakeholders will share data regularly• Implementing units will use the information for

program planning

10

NACP III Planning Process

The approach:

• Three Ones• Participatory Planning• Increased ownership at state and district levels• Mainstreaming • Partnerships

11

NACP III Planning ProcessThe Process

• Working Groups• State level consultations for frame work

development• District and State level Program Implementation

Plans (PIPs)• Commission studies or assessments• Collaboration with Development Partners (DP) • Consultations with NGOs, civil society, public-

sector, private sector and other interest groups• National PIP

12

Summary Update
