Know Your Response! Know Your Capacity! 31 Adopting the dynamic planning process in HIV/AIDS Mainstreaming Step 1: Taking a stand for HIV mainstreaming Defining and communicating the commitment Step 5: Monitoring and reviewing progress Step 2: Assessing impacts, gaps and key available Mainstreaming HIV in the Housing sector Step 4: Implementation resources (technical, human and financial) Step 3: Formulating strategies & setting milestones 32 32 HIV Mainstreaming Housing sector comprehensive HIV/AIDS Response o Internal HIV mainstreaming Workplace/wellness programs o External HIV mainstreaming Mandate driven interventions o Informed by Housing sector impact study/KAP studies o Informed by sector mandates/specific studies/possible synergies o Implemented through basic minimum package by each organization o Integrated in organization’s overall annual management plans o Monitored and reviewed annually o Monitored & reviewed annually Human Development, MDGs, NDPs, NSP goals and country specific visions 33 Important to mobilize all sectors for HIV/AIDS response: leaving no one behind Ambition will be required to get ahead of the epidemic and save millions of lives Thank you ! 34
