description |
Conditional cash transfer programs are
often used to encourage poor families to take young children
for regular health check-ups and enroll them in school
decision making. Can cash transfers successfully cut
transmission of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and
acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) by reducing risky
sexual behaviors? How can these programs be structured for
maximum impact to help countries meet the challenges of
reducing HIV and AIDS and other sexually transmitted
diseases? The World Bank is working with the international
community and governments to stop the spread of HIV and
AIDS. The extraordinarily high social and economic cost of
the HIV and AIDS crisis requires that governments and
development experts continue the search for innovative and
effective prevention approaches, including financial
incentives. The results of the evaluation indicate the
potential of financial incentives for reducing the spread of
sexually transmitted infections and possibly as a route for
HIV prevention. |
