Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are major causes of reproductive morbidity (pain, infertility) and mortality (HIV) usually concentrated in Most at Risk Populations (MARPs), characterized by frequent, unprotected sexual intercourse. Measuring risk behaviors, protective behaviors and prevalence of STI among MARPs allows for monitoring the impact of treatment & preventive interventions.

Principles of the new funding model:

• Greater alignment with country schedules, context, and priorities
• Focus on countries with the highest disease burden and lowest ability to pay, while keeping the portfolio global
• Simplicity for both implementers and the Global Fund
• Predictability of process and financing levels
• Ability to elicit full expressions of demand and reward ambition

Browse and view tables, charts and graphs illustrating data on HIV prevalence and epidemiology, risk behaviors, vulnerability and HIV knowledge, HIV expenditures, and national responses in the Pacific Island Countries and Territories (PICT).
