Know Your HIV-Prevention Response: Southern Province, Zambia. Chart Book on Implementation of HIV-prevention Interventions by Nongovernmental Organizations Abstract:

In 2013, MEASURE Evaluation in collaboration with the Zambian National HIV/AIDS/STI/TB Council and the Institute of Economic and Social Statistics of the University of Zambia, implemented the Know Your HIV Response (KYR) study, a situation analysis of HIV-prevention interventions in Southern Province, Zambia. The study had three primary objectives:

  • determine what specific HIV-prevention interventions were being implemented;
  • determine by which organizations and in which districts the interventions were being implemented; and
  • assess the extent to which the HIV-prevention response matched current HIV-transmission patterns, were focused on geographic areas where HIV was spreading most rapidly, and covered technical recommendations for populations at higher risk of HIV exposure.

The purpose of this chart book is to disseminate easily understandable information on gaps in HIV-prevention interventions in the nongovernmental sector in Southern Province. It is hoped that the information presented will guide program implementers as they select and prioritize prevention interventions that are needed to have an impact on HIV incidence and prevalence.
