HIV surveillance applies a repeated survey method, and the 28th round was conducted in 2010. Collected data were used to compare with those from the previous rounds to monitor changes of HIV prevalence. Data were collected from IDU rehabilitation clinics of general hospitals, provincial hospitals, and drug rehabilitation centers by collecting all visited IDU cases in June. If the sample size is less than 10, data collection will be extended until the 15th of July. Data from the provinces of more than 20 samples will be used to calculate the median of HIV infection at the national level.

Domestic investments have surpassed global giving in 2011. Low- and middle-income countries invested US$ 8.6 billion in 2011. While countries are tipping the balance, international assistance still remains critical and indispensable in the short and medium term.

The methodology for carrying out this study has centered on three elements:
  • projection of the course of the epidemic under different program scale-up scenarios;
  • estimating the resources required for addressing the HIV/AIDS epidemic as it unfolds according to the different scenarios; and,
  • assessing how the resources required in the future might be financed.

This report is a compiled analysis of two National AIDS Spending Assessments (NASA) conducted in 2010 and 2011 in Viet Nam by a team of consultants hired by UNAIDS Vietnam, with the support from Viet Nam Administration of HIV/AIDS Control. The first NASA captured AIDS expenditure by nearly all national and international funding sources in Viet Nam over the two-year period 2008 to 2009, while the second NASA captured this expenditure for 2010. The two NASA track the resources of health services as well as social-mitigation, education, labour, justice and other sectors to embody the multisectoral response in Viet Nam. Through its findings, the NASA aim to inform and support the development of Viet Nam’s new National Strategy on HIV/AIDS Prevention and Control to 2020, with a vision to 2030.

The National AIDS Authority (NAA), as part of its mandate to monitor and evaluate the national response to HIV and AIDS in Cambodia, conducted the third National AIDS Spending Assessment (NASA III) in early 2011. The assessment covered 2009 and 2010, and together with data obtained in the two previous NASA rounds, has allowed for analysis of trends in resource flows from 2006 to 2010. The three assessments have produced valuable data which are used to monitor Cambodia’s National Strategic Plan for Comprehensive and Multi sectoral Response to HIV and AIDS (NSP) and to report on expenditures nationally and globally.

The National HIV and AIDS Spending Assessment (NASA) approach to resource tracking is a systematic methodology used to determine the flow of resources intended to combat HIV and AIDS. The tool tracks actual expenditure (public, private and international) both in health and non-health sectors that comprises the National Response to HIV and AIDS. It represents HIV Response in the monetary values. The first NASA exercise in Papua New Guinea captures 2009 and 2010 calendar years.
