Synopsis

Sue Holden has adapted the text of her previous book AIDS on the Agenda to meet the needs of non-specialist staff who work with communities on the ground, and for middle managers in Human Resources departments who support program staff. As with the longer book, Mainstreaming HIV/AIDS in Development and Humanitarian Programmes has two main aims:
? to show how agencies can adapt their external programs to reduce susceptibility to HIV infection and vulnerability to the impacts of AIDS;
? to demonstrate how they can modify their internal policies and systems to protect the interests of their staff and preserve the viability of their operations.

The author explains the concept of mainstreaming in plain English and offers practical guidelines for implementing the approach in a wide range of contexts.
