National AIDS Spending Assessment (2008-2009), Mongolia. National Committee on AIDS and UNAIDS. (2010)
 |
In recognition of the severity of the HIV/AIDS pandemic, international organizations, policymakers, and donors have made bold declarations and set targets for curbing the spread of HIV/AIDS, mitigating its impact, and extending treatment access. For example, the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), defined by the international community to serve as a framework for measuring country development progress, aim to halt and reverse the spread of HIV/AIDS by the year 2015. In addition, in 2001, 189 nations adopted the Declaration of Commitment on HIV/AIDS at the first-ever United Nations General Assembly Special Session (UNGASS) on HIV/AIDS; this Declaration covers 10 priorities, from prevention to treatment to funding, and was designed as a blueprint to meet the HIV/AIDS MDGs. |

Three Cents A Day is Not Enough - Resourcing HIV-related Harm Reduction on a Global Basis. Stimson GV, Cook C, Bridge J, et al (2010)
 |
People who inject drugs should benefit from the large increases in the global resources available for HIV. However, it is difficult to measure how much of global HIV spending actually goes into harm reduction. Although harm reduction is relatively invisible in national and international budgets, it is possible to calculate a plausible estimate of HIVrelated harm reduction expenditure in low and middle income countries between 2007 and 2009. These results demonstrate the degree to which the international community is failing to address the issue of HIV among injecting drug using populations.

The aim of this initiative is to inform policy-makers, program managers, and the donor community on the magnitude and profile of HIV/AIDS expenditures in the country and guide them in their planning and decisionmaking activities. |

Economic Cost of HIV and AIDS in India. Das S, Mukhopadhyay, A and Ray T (2009)
|
According to the latest available estimates, there are currently about 2.5 million people living with HIV or AIDS in India, corresponding to a HIV prevalence rate of 0.36 percent for the population ages 15–49 (IIPS 2007). While HIV prevalence thus remains relatively low, there are sev- eral factors that are unique to India’s HIV epidemic, and need to be taken into account when assessing the impact of HIV and AIDS.

NASA 2007 aimed to assess overall spending on the HIV/AIDS programme by examining programme financial flows – Sources of Funds, Agents, and Providers - beneficiary population, and specific functions and programmes where spending was being made. Attempt was made to see if sufficient resources were being invested in enhancing the capacity of the organizations’ human resources to implement HIV/AIDS programme activities, as well as to enhancing overall national capacity for external and internal resource mobilisation.

Introduction of National AIDS Spending Assessment (NASA) to the National Advisory Committee on AIDS in Fiji. Jahnsen J. (2009)
|
This report supports the proposed UNDP financed technical assistance intended to introduce the National AIDS Spending Assessment methodology to the National Advisory Committee (NACA). Further development, implementation and institutionalization of the NASA methodology is expected to be lead by the NACA in order to standardize the classification of HIV and AIDS expenditures among all stakeholders. It is projected that NACA’s analysis of the tracked expenditures will enable valuable information to be disclosed that will influence the strategic allocation of future resources to Fiji’s HIV/AIDS initiative. Data generated through NASA can also be used to measure the nation’s commitment and effort, which is an important component of the UNGASS Declaration, and therefore will also help Fiji to address some of the gaps that currently exist in its UNGASS reporting. |
