Description:“It is anticipated that the recommendations in this guideline will remain valid until 2015. The Department of HIV/AIDS at WHO headquarters in Geneva will be responsible for initiating a review of this guideline at that time”.
Global surveillance of HIV/AIDS and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is a joint effort of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS). The UNAIDS/WHO Working Group on Global HIV/AIDS and STI Surveillance, initiated in November 1996, is the main coordination and implementation mechanism for UNAIDS and WHO to compile the best information available, and to improve the quality of data needed for informed decision-making and planning at the national, regional and global levels.
WHO and UNAIDS express their gratitude to those who have contributed their time and experience, and provided precious inputs and suggestions for the development of these Guidelines.
The current revision was supported and made possible by the United States President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR).
