| Summary: | This review report focuses on the HIV
component of the World Bank Bangladesh and Nepal transport
infrastructure projects as at the end of 2009. This report
is prepared with the following three objectives: 1)
knowledge improved and lessons learned from HIV and AIDS
activities developed within the road projects financed by
the World Bank in Bangladesh and Nepal as of the end of
2009; 2) knowledge base built on current HIV and AIDS
programs in the transport sector in Bangladesh and Nepal to
serve as a reference for future World Bank projects in the
transport sector in South Asia; 3) guidance provided to the
draft regional strategy for HIV prevention in the transport
sector of the Bank's South Asia region. The World Bank
has a comparative advantage in promoting the inclusion of a
transport sector response within the new national AIDS
strategies being formulated for Bangladesh in 2010 and Nepal
in 2011. The Bank may consider making the model HIV clause
in the transport projects mandatory, consistent with other
funders, such as the Asian Development Bank (ADB), to
improve aid effectiveness. |
