This book reviews the human
immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
(HIV/AIDS) situation in the Middle East, North Africa, and
Eastern Mediterranean (MENA/EM) region, and is intended to
stimulate discussion and promote dialogue among the
region's policy and decisionmakers. It seeks to provide
a framework for multisectoral strategic action to reduce
behaviors that risk spreading HIV, to care for and support
those who become infected, and to diminish vulnerability
among specific segments of society. Although most evidence
suggests that overall HIV prevalence is low in the region,
greater investments in improved surveillance, and care
needed now-to maintain low prevalence levels and preserve
the focus on national and regional development goals. |
