Research<br />

Recruitment <strong>and</strong> hiring-establishment<br />

The tendency <strong>of</strong> recruitment <strong>of</strong> staff by<br />

projects <strong>and</strong> secondment practices<br />

In service training<br />

Different schedules <strong>of</strong> in service training<br />

practices by various HIV <strong>and</strong> AIDS<br />

interventions or programmes<br />

Task shift policy.<br />

-No st<strong>and</strong>ardized programme for training<br />

<strong>and</strong> certification that guarantees essential<br />

st<strong>and</strong>ards <strong>of</strong> care.<br />

-No regulatory framework<br />

-Unclear incentive package for implementing<br />

task shift <strong>plan</strong> (policy).<br />

Unclear flow <strong>of</strong> data <strong>and</strong> inefficient reporting –<br />

incomplete, under reporting<br />

Doubtful use <strong>of</strong> data at all levels –<br />

Lack <strong>of</strong> integrated supervision <strong>and</strong> adequate<br />

feedback at <strong>the</strong> facilities level to ensure<br />

improved quality <strong>of</strong> services.<br />

Lack <strong>of</strong> harmonized M & E system (each<br />

program with a database <strong>and</strong> M & E)<br />

Lack <strong>of</strong> information or documentation on best<br />

practices<br />

Inadequate biological <strong>and</strong> behavioural<br />

surveillance on STI <strong>and</strong> HIV<br />

No surveillance activities targeting <strong>the</strong> mostat-risk<br />

sub populations (MARPS)<br />

Absence <strong>of</strong> testing facilities or infrastructure<br />

for diagnosis <strong>of</strong> HIV in children ;<br />

Use <strong>of</strong> RPR test in STI surveillance pauses<br />

difficulties in remote areas due to <strong>the</strong> cold<br />

chain requirement<br />

Inadequate surveillance activities concerning<br />

drugs resistance monitoring (for STI <strong>and</strong><br />

ARV) .<br />

Insufficient capacity to carry out STI drug<br />

susceptibility monitoring<br />

Insufficient capacity to correctly identify <strong>and</strong><br />

report on side effects <strong>of</strong> HIV drugs (ADR)<br />

Limited underst<strong>and</strong>ing <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> nature <strong>and</strong><br />

driving forces <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> HIV epidemic at <strong>the</strong> subnational<br />

level <strong>and</strong> among sub-populations<br />

Lack <strong>of</strong> research policy on HIV <strong>and</strong> AIDS <strong>and</strong><br />

Weak research coordination<br />

Inadequate dissemination <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> results <strong>of</strong><br />

research locally, to policy makers ,<br />

programmes managers <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> beneficiaries<br />

Very little has been done in <strong>the</strong> area <strong>of</strong><br />

Paediatrics HIV/AIDS.<br />
