ABOUT THE BOOK
The book is about the changing face of the
epidemic which has induced concurrent changes
in strategies of “National AIDS Control
Programme and Policies”. Over the years the
focus has shifted from awareness rising to
behaviour change, from a national response
to a decentralized response implemented by
Indian states and a growing recognition
of the importance of engaging Non Governmental Organisations, Community
Based Organisations (CBOs) and networks of
people living with HIV/AIDS.
Since 1986, the Government of India has been
responding to these challenges through
preventive awareness, targeted interventions,
care and support programmes under the
leadership of Ministry of Health. Its planned
initiatives so far include the Medium Term Plan
(1990-92), the first five-year strategic plan
(NACP – I, 1992-99), the second five-year
strategic plan (NACP – II, 1999-2006) and the
third five-year strategic plan (NACP –III, 2007-2012). The present publication is an edited
version.–“Governance of Public Health Response
to HIV/AIDS in India”. Strategically, this
describes the richness of multiple specialities of
Trans-disciplinary experiences in planning phase
of HIV/AIDS management under this third
phase in India.
