Message from
Board of Directors
The Khmer HIV/AIDS NGO Alliance
(KHANA) is the largest national, non-
governmental organization working
in the HIV sector in Cambodia, and I
am proud to serve as its Chairperson
on the Board of Directors. KHANA
demonstrates unique ability to provide
high quality care, support and impact
mitigation with people affected by HIV,
alongside focused HIV prevention
among most at risk populations.
KHANA plays both a leadership role
and a supportive role to local
implementing partners, connecting
them to much needed resources and
giving a voice to the community
response to HIV and AIDS in
Cambodia.
KHANA and the Government began a
joint home-based care pilot project for
People Living with HIV (PLHIV) in 1997
and since then KHANA has been a key
partner in supporting the delivery of
the national Continuum of Care model.
In 2009 KHANA made unparalleled
contributions to the national response,
and toward achieving Cambodias
Universal Access targets. Implementing
partners delivered 59% of the home
and community based care to PLHIV
in Cambodia. Prevention coverage also
increased from 2008, for example 67%
of injecting drug users (IDU) users in
KHANA target areas were exposed to
HIV prevention interventions.
2009 was also a challenging year, and
KHANA partners experienced a number
of contextual barriers to the delivery
of effective and evidence-based HIV
interventions. However, 2010 will see
the development of a new Cambodian
Model for Community-based Continuum
of Care for Drug Users inclusive of
HIV prevention for injecting drug users.
We are excited about KHANAs role
in the provision of community-based
treatment services for drug users, and
supportive of immediate scale up of
needle and syringe programs. KHANA
has also contributed strategically to the
development of the Standard Operating
Procedures (SOP) for Continuum of
Prevention to Care and Treatment
for Women Entertainment Workers in
Cambodia which provides cutting edge
innovation to linked approaches for HIV
prevention with entertainment workers
and MSM.

The Global Financial Crisis continues
to threaten the livelihoods of many
Cambodians, particularly for those who
are most vulnerable and at risk to HIV.
International Partners have a signicant
role in working to ensure the
predictability of nancing for HIV
interventions, particularly for intensifying
hard won prevention and treatment
gains.
Much work remains to be done
addressing gender inequity, men and
womens vulnerability to HIV, and their
access to services. In 2009 KHANA
developed a new Gender Strategy,
demonstrating its commitment to
practical measures to ensure the fuller
involvement of women in the
management of the response as well
as ensuring that programs recognize
and respond to the different
experiences and needs of women
and men.
In the future we need concerted efforts
to ensure the adequate delivery of
paediatric antiretroviral therapy, and
access to second and third line drugs
for children and adolescents who are
facing a lifetime of treatment
HIV-related stigma continues to
impede our efforts to increase access
to services, and achieve Cambodias
Universal Access targets. In 2010
KHANA will be conducting the global
Stigma Index research in Cambodia,
working with our strategic partner
the Cambodian People Living with
HIV/AIDS Network (CPN+) to gather
evidence on the forms and extent of
stigma and discrimination experienced
by PLHIV. I am personally very excited
about the learning that will come out of
this project later in 2010, identifying the
barriers created by HIV-related stigma
and providing an evidence base to
improve policies and programs across
the country.
I would like to acknowledge KHANAs
success in taking forward the
management of the International
HIV/AIDS Alliance South-East Asia
and Pacic Technical Support Hub in
May 2009. The TS Hub is building a
network of technical support providers
and consultants which will strengthen
the capacity of civil society to provide
quality technical support in the region.
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I
would like to acknowledge KHANAs
important partnership with the Royal
Government of Cambodia and afrm
KHANAs ongoing commitment to
partnerships and work that is
consistent with national priorities and
strategies. We wish to express our
gratitude to the donors who allow us
to reach our goals: USAID, GFATM,
EC, WFP, Irish AID and AusAID. Finally
I would like to express my thanks and
admiration for the KHANA staff and
implementing partners at the local level
whose vision and consistent dedication
have impacted signicantly upon those
Cambodians in need of HIV prevention,
treatment, care and support.

Message from
KHANA ED
It gives me great pleasure and pride to
share the impact of KHANAs work in
2009 through this Annual Review. This
was a period of continued development
and growth, working with our NGO
implementing partners to deliver high
quality community-based care and
prevention services in the second year
of our Strategic Plan 2008 10.
KHANA was initially established in
1996 as a project of the International
HIV/AIDS Alliance; it operated as an
NGO from 1997 and was ofcially
registered as a local NGO in 2000. We
were the rst Linking Organization to
gain accreditation from the Alliance,
and since May 2009 we have hosted
the Alliances South East Asia and
Pacic Technical Support Hub. This
year, we scaled up our work to 19
provinces and municipalities with 64
implementing partners at community
level.
KHANA has a niche in linking
community- and facility-based services.
In 2009 we made almost 100,000
referrals for People Living with HIV and
Orphans and Vulnerable Children to
health services. Linking HIV and AIDS
to other sectors and sustainable
development approaches through
partnerships is essential for a more
sustainable and comprehensive
response. As Kolabs story inside
demonstrates, income generation
activities and business skills development
are building self-reliance among PLHIV
while alleviating food insecurity.
Building the capacity of our implementing
partners is at the heart of all KHANAs
work. This year, we conducted NGO
Capacity Assessments with 38
partners which led to the development
of individual technical support plans
targeting local needs. Salvation Center
Cambodia describes inside how our
partners found this to be an afrming
and useful learning experience.
The wider environment in 2009
challenged our ability to consistently
deliver evidence-based HIV
interventions, particularly among drug
users and entertainment sector
workers. However, we commend our
partners who continued to reduce
HIV risk and vulnerabilities by building
awareness and self-efcacy through
peer support, while also delivering
essential HIV prevention services.
KHANA initiated a new Policy,
Advocacy and Communication
Committee which developed our new
strategy in this area. In 2010, KHANA
will continue to leverage its strategic
alliances with a wide range of
stakeholders, striving toward a more
enabling environment for our work
with most-at-risk populations.
KHANA and its partners have
continued to work in partnership with
the Royal Government of Cambodia
and we are proud to serve on a
number of technical working groups,
making contributions to Cambodian
law and policy development.
Furthermore, our relationship with the
International HIV/AIDS Alliance allowed
us to support high-level policy
discussion on drug use and human
rights between Dr. Nas Sadik, the
UN Special Envoy for HIV/AIDS in Asia
and The Pacic, and Samdech Prime
Minister Hun Sen.
Looking ahead, I would like to express
our support for the National Strategic
Plan III (2011-2015), and our
commitment to continuing leadership
as the principal Cambodian institution
for community responses to HIV and
AIDS. KHANA will develop a new
ve-year strategic plan which both
continues our core business, building
on the successes of the past ten years,
and keeps pace with the changing
program environment. We will be
placing increased emphasis on the
following areas:
1. Harm reduction
2. Economic livelihoods
strengthening and
micro-nance
3. Integration and expansion for
Sexual and Reproductive Health,
and Gender

Wed like to extend our profuse thanks
for the support of our donors: USAID,
GFATM, WFP, the EC, AusAID and
IrishAID. I would also like to thank our
highly skilled and experienced Board
of Directors for their ongoing guidance
and leadership, and our 63 staff and
17 volunteers for their hard work and
commitment this year. Finally, I want to
acknowledge our implementing
partners and their outstanding
commitment to people across
Cambodia, leading comprehensive
community action against HIV and
AIDS.

FOR HIV AND AIDS IN CAMBODIA 6
Strategic Direction One
Improving coverage and quality of
community response to HIV and AIDS
KHANAs rst focus has been the continued development of its contributions to community level responses to HIV and AIDS
through support to a network of implementing partners which are civil society organizations. KHANAs coverage of
communities affected by HIV has been closely coordinated with the national response.
IMPACT IN 2009:
264,899 people reached through HIV prevention services.
53% of these were women and girls.
885,808 condoms distributed.

16,271 people living with HIV (PLHIV) and 22,370 orphans and
vulnerable children (OVC) 58% women and girls reached
with home and community based care. Increase of 10%
from 2008.
As a result KHANA provided over 59% of home and
community based care coverage in Cambodia, a signicant
contribution to the national response and towards
achievement of Cambodias Universal Access Targets.
650 PLHIV self-help groups and 666 OVC support groups
established.
Work started in two new provinces of Koh Kong and Stung
Treng, bringing KHANAs total coverage area to 19
provinces and municipalities.
Health Centres with Home-Based Care Team support:
238 in 2008 256 in 2009.
Peer-driven programming at the heart of focused
prevention: 334 peer facilitators and 1,403 peer
educators were trained to deliver HIV prevention education.
The training to become a peer educator has made us feel
empowered to have better health. The training was fun and
I always look forward to attending these meetings. Before we didnt
understand about STIs, HIV or testing services; now we have better
information and can promote these services to our friends at work.
We recommend that all our friends and colleagues should visit the public
testing services and Referral Hospitals, because now we have more trust in
them.

Development of Needle and Syringe Program
1,344 injecting drug users reached through implementing partners outreach and drop in centers that provide
a one-stop-shop of health and social care services. Peer outreach workers promote the use of safer
injecting equipment, collect used needles and syringes, supply basic rst aid supplies and condoms.
67% of injecting drug users (IDU) & 71% of amphetamine-type stimulants (ATS) users in KHANA target areas
were exposed to HIV prevention interventions Increased from 51% of IDU and 49% of ATS in 2008.
Implementation of the Standard Package of Activities: a comprehensive continuum of prevention to care
for people living with HIV, orphans and vulnerable children, youth, men who have sex with men, drug users
and entertainment sector workers. These were well received by implementing partners and stakeholders.
NCHADS referred NGO partners to these resources, as the accepted quality standards for the response.
79% of households with OVC in KHANA target areas
received the minimum package of support (2009 target: 40%)
Informed program development through operational
research
A new Research Unit at KHANA led the way for high quality
studies, conducting a baseline survey on knowledge, attitudes
and practices for most-at-risk populations in Cambodia (to be
published in 2010).
Linkages between community- and facility-based health
services.
o 94,073 referrals for PLHIV and OVC to health services
2

and 25,084 referrals to voluntary and condential
counselling and testing.
o 9,860 people supported to access ART; 1,185 of these were children. 57% were women and girls.
Linking livelihood strengthening and social economic improvements
into the HIV and AIDS response
o Grants for income generation activities awarded to over two
thousand affected households (1,381 PLHIV and 704 OVC).
o Income Generation Activity Training Manual and Good Food
Toolkits developed and disseminated to implementing partners.
There are also times when emergency support is needed as part of a
social safety net, particularly for children. Therefore:
o Over three thousand tons of food support were distributed to
9,256 PLHIV households and OVC households with support from
the World Food Program.
o 13,445 OVC were supported to attend school.

For many clients of home and community based care, the advent of treatment for opportunistic infections and
ARVs has enabled them to live their lives more fully, which has changed their needs. There is still a signicant gap in
services supporting economic empowerment of people affected by HIV and AIDS. KHANA has supported income
generation and business skills development to contribute to the sustainability of affected families livelihoods and
promote self reliance among PLHIV. Partnership between KHANA and Centre dEtude et de Dveloppement
Agricole Cambodgien (CEDAC) was initiated in 2007 to provide technical support in building agricultural livelihood
skills while alleviating food insecurity and improving the nutrition status of families and communities.
Kolab

, aged 41, lives in Traing District in Takeo Province with her two daughters. Five years ago, after
an extended period of ill health, Kolabs husband - a military man - died of opportunistic infections
related to AIDS. The family had sold all their land to pay for his medical costs their rice elds, their
livelihood. Kolab had no money left when she learned of her HIV positive status. She found herself alone,
and faced severe stigma and discrimination from her neighbours.
Antiretroviral therapy stabilized Kolabs health. She joined a local self-help group and found that many of
her personal and social needs were being met. However, she still struggled to pull herself out of poverty.
She saved 30,000 riel ($7.5) with her self-help group to use as capital for a small business opportunity.
In May 2009, recognizing Kolabs strong determination, one of KHANAs implementing partners called
RACHANA, selected her to attend a CEDAC training course on practical income generation activity
implementation.
I learned how to raise chickens, and sh rearing in plastic covered holes. I am a home gardener now
and plant many kinds of vegetables. The physical exercise of planting and tending the vegetables is
good because it keeps me strong. I have fresh vegetables to eat and my health is good. The neighbours
dont show discrimination towards me now and they frequently come to buy morning glory from me.
I can make 5,000 riel a day from that (around $1.25) which contributes to the cost of my daughters
studies
I feel happy that I can see the results of my small agricultural business going well. The neighbours are
friendly with me; they also want me to show them how to raise chickens and how to farm sh! The
training was very good and Im happy that I had the opportunity to attend. It gave me condence. Now,
I hope that the home care team and the NGO can help me to grow my business. I want to support
myself, and my family.
KHANAs implementing partners play an important role in linking beneciaries small businesses to
productive markets and establish a sustainable income. In 2009, KHANA identied the need for external
technical expertise and built a new partnership with Development Alternatives, Inc. DAI has extensive
experience in sustainable approaches to economic development critical to vulnerable communities such
as people living with and affected by HIV.

Strategic Direction Two
Building the capacity of civil society
KHANA mobilizes the civil society response by organizing and distributing the resources needed to support the
implementation of high quality programs at community level, and by building the capacity of its NGO and CBO partners.
It pilots innovative interventions, scaling up those that prove effective through documentation and sharing of best practice
guidelines and training when needed.
IMPACT IN 2009:
Grants were awarded to 64 partners, totalling close to ve million dollars (74% of KHANAs total budget
4
).
KHANA staff undertook 204 technical support visits to implementing partners.
Network development for most-at-risk populations
Organizational and institutional capacity building for key networks such as the Cambodian People Living with
HIV/AIDS Network (CPN+) and the national MSM network, Bandanh Chaktomuk, in turn strengthened
capacities of most-at-risk populations. These networks were recognized at national and international levels, and
invited to participate in a variety of meetings and workshops.
Commitment to continual improvement through
monitoring and evaluation. With inputs from implementing
partners, a new Database Management System was
developed to support planning and progress reporting at all
levels.
In April, a USAID Evaluation Team noted KHANAs
sophisticated monitoring systems and demonstrated
good use of information.
Horizontal
learning. Seven
implementing
partners
participated in a learning visit to another strong implementing
partner, Community Poverty Reduction, who shared best
practices on nancial management.
Good Governance manual developed with implementing partners.
This will be rolled out in 2010.
KHANA Gender Strategy.
KHANA is committed to a strong gender focus cutting across all
program interventions. This new strategy will promote gender
sensitive approaches within KHANA and among its network of partners in 2010.
Implementing partners designed their own tools and mechanisms to support service delivery.
Women Organization for Modern Economy and Nursing (WOMEN) and Sihanouk Hospital Center of Hope
(SHCH) developed their own information, education and communication materials and ipbooks for working with
orphans and vulnerable children. Implementing partners also worked with Commune Councils for Women
and Children to improve Child Protection Committees and introduce more community participation including
direct participation of children themselves.

630 evidence-based advocacy
activities led by
implementing partners
On 21 May, Community United
Development (CUD) participated in a
meeting organized by Sihanoukville
Provincial Health Department with
entertainment service owners and
gatekeepers. CUD represented the
voices of local most-at-risk populations
to gain support for HIV prevention
programming in the local area.
In 2009, 38 implementing partners participated
in NGO Capacity Assessments as an
opportunity to explore their strengths and
areas for improvement. The assessments also
provided a baseline, against which progress and
the effectiveness of technical support can be
measured. The self-assessments were
conducted in a participatory manner, using
group discussions. Findings led to the
development of individual technical support
plans; KHANAs experience has shown that
partners require quality support which is
specically tailored to meet local needs.
Five NGOs scored excellent in all areas of:
1) Partnerships, referral systems, coordination,
communication and advocacy, 2) HIV and AIDS
technical capacity, 3) Organizational strength,
and 4) Promotion of participation.
Salvation Center Cambodia (SCC) was one of these partners, demonstrating their impressive capacity. SCCs core
programming has included providing home and community based care from monks and nuns to PLHIV and OVC,
linking traditional Buddhist beliefs and approaches to HIV interventions. Over the years SCC has expanded to
provide economic strengthening opportunities, community development work to support access to clean water and
activities targeting HIV and drug use.
Mr. Tep Monyrotha, Program Coordinator of SCC, says that The Capacity Assessment was very important for
SCC as it helped us to see our strengths and weaknesses more clearly. We were happy to do this and
grateful to KHANA for leading this initiative. We learned many things organizational and nancial
management were the main areas where we need to continue improvements. Supporting all our programs,
we need strong systems and nancial management and KHANA will continue to help us with this. We
will repeat this assessment regularly, so we will learn a lot about how we improve and what we need
to do to sustain our growth. KHANA continues to provide technical support to us through the quarterly
visits; these are also very important to track our progress regularly
SCC has grown a lot over the years and it seems that our programs are more sustainable nowadays. We
started in 1994 in Phnom Penh. Now we have over 100 staff and also work in Battambang and Siem Reap
provinces. In 2009, we were really pleased to get a new building for our vocational training program in
Battambang. We have also seen levels of drug use increasing in our target areas. With KHANAs advice
and support, last year we reached around 300 new drug users in Siem Reap.
KHANA is delighted to be a part of SCCs growth and development; long term support to this partner has led to an
effective program which operates at an impressive scale.

Strategic Direction Three
Fostering Policy Dialogue
2009 presented a challenging context and environment for HIV prevention.
The introduction of the Law on Suppression of Human Trafcking and Sexual Exploitation in 2008 dramatically altered the
context of transactional sex in Cambodia. Many brothels closed down and transactional sex has shifted to entertainment
venues and to informal settings such as streets and parks. It has become more challenging to reach the women working in
these settings with even basic HIV prevention services, such as condoms and information, as transactional sex is taking
place in more hidden environments and in an atmosphere of great fear.
The environment for effective harm reduction approaches also worsened during the course of 2009. The criminalization
of drug users impeded effective HIV prevention interventions. KHANA has mobilized support for these groups and
continues to work closely with the UN and National AIDS Authority to overcome these barriers and deliver effective HIV
programs.
Communication and Advocacy Strategy development.
The new Policy, Advocacy and Communication Committee (PolAdCom) served as a consultative forum to:
discuss technical issues, ensure cross-departmental coordination, communication with KHANA partners, and
conduct effective advocacy with partners.
The strategy identies the criminalization of drug users as one of its key issues and, linked to this, human rights
violations for drug users. KHANA organized a Community Forum to build public understanding of needle and
syringe programming in support of the work of Korsang in Phnom Penh.
Contributions to Cambodian law and policy development included:
Standard Operating Procedures for men who have sex with men, Operational Framework and Standard
Operating Procedures for a continuum to prevention to care and treatment for entertainment workers, and the
new Drug Control Law.
Criticism of the poor living
conditions for people living with
HIV at Toul Sambo.
When 42 households of people
living with HIV were forcibly
evicted from the inner city
community of Borei Keila to
Toul Sambo, KHANA was one
of many NGOs that advocated
for human rights and stepped
in to provide support. With help
from the World Food Program,
emergency food aid was
distributed to 42 PLHIV
households in need.

TAKING HUMAN RIGHTS, DRUG USE AND HIV: FROM THE GROUND TO THE
GOVERNMENT. UN Special Envoy meeting with the Prime Minister of Cambodia
In November, the International HIV/AIDS Alliance Trustees held their biannual board meeting in Cambodia. This
meeting was an opportunity for Dr. Nas Sadik, one of the Alliance trustees, to pay an ofcial visit to Cambodia.
Dr. Nas is also the United Nations Special Envoy for HIV and AIDS in Asia and The Pacic. As Special Envoy, it is
Dr. Nass role to foster the advancement of the HIV and AIDS agenda in the region, and to advocate for
the necessary changes. During her visit, KHANA facilitated eld trips and stakeholder meetings to bring
concerns from civil society to the government.
Dr. Nas visited a Government Health Center and several of KHANAs implementing partners, such as WOMEN,
KOSHER and Korsang, to see both community and government work in action, and the linkages between these.
Korsang is an NGO which focuses on harm reduction for Cambodian drug users and Dr. Nas particularly admired
their approach; most staff are former drug users themselves which gives them a unique understanding and bond
with the service users. When asked by Dr. Nas about the challenges they faced, Korsang highlighted a lack of
understanding from the surrounding community and local stakeholders about harm reduction and lack
of compassion towards drug users. Dr. Nas praised Korsang for providing quality services in a safe space for drug
users.
Following her eld visits, Dr. Oum
Sopheap the KHANA Executive
Director accompanied Dr. Nas
to a meeting with the Council of
Ministers and Samdech Prime
Minister Hun Sen. Dr. Nas took
this opportunity to raise the
challenges described by Korsang.
She emphasized the importance
of human rights with consideration
to HIV and drug use, and highlighted
examples of best practice from
around the region. Dr. Nas also
criticised the conditions of
government-run rehabilitation
centers for recovering drug
users, saying they were not really
equipped to provide health care
and psychological counseling.
5

Discussions acknowledged the
Governments openness and acceptance of evidence-based approaches and improved policies, while
acknowledging that it may take some time for the system to change.
Ultimately, Dr. Nas strongly praised the progress that has been made in Cambodia, saying that Cambodia was
perhaps the only country in the world that could achieve its HIV/AIDS Millennium Development Goal.
This was accompanied by advice that further progress could be hindered if discrimination against people living with
HIV and most-at-risk populations was not addressed.

Strengthening Strategic Alliances
KHANA played an active role in thirty-ve national-level Technical Working Groups. Four of these were ]
new in 2009:
The National Reproductive, Maternal and Child Health Taskforce, providing inputs into the health section of
National Youth Policy.
National Entertainment Workers Technical Working Group, NAA
National STI Working Group, NCHADS
NCHADS Research Steering Committee
KHANA IPs also played an active role in many provincial- and national level Technical Working Groups.
KHANAs outstanding contributions were acknowledged by
a variety of partners. A Leadership Award from the First Lady
to KHANAs Executive Director was one of many awards
recognizing KHANAs work.
On 17 November, KHANA was presented with the
International HIV/AIDS Alliance Certicate of
Accreditation during a visit of the Alliances Board of
Trustees. KHANA was the rst of the Alliance family Linking
Organizations to receive accreditation in 2008, recognizing
its high quality technical skills, good governance, program
management capacity and more.
KHANAs innovative use of alliances with the Cambodian media has contributed to more responsible and accurate
reporting on HIV and AIDS.
In the run up to World AIDS Day, KHANA
supported a Press Conference on
unsafe sex and improper condom
use. This was led by Cambodia News
during the Water Festival on 30 October.
Hundreds of thousands of people from rural
areas across Cambodia are believed to
travel to Phnom Penh to watch the boat
races during this national celebration,
making it a good opportunity to utilize mass
media approaches for education. This
effective alliance between civil society and
the media meant that HIV prevention
messages went out to an enormous
audience.
Throughout 2009 KHANA staff actively engaged with the media. On International Womens Day,
Ms. Chea Thira, KHANA Program Management Ofcer,
joined representatives from the
Ministry of Womens Affairs and
National AIDS Authority in a live radio
show, broadcast nationally. The key
topic was HIV Spousal Transmission
and Prevention. Thira says:
This media event was well
organized and I think that the
speakers all shared useful
information with the listeners.
I was impressed by how many
people called in after Id talked
about KHANAs work responding
to HIV. Mothers and fathers called
in asking for advice on how to
support young people to protect
themselves and prevent HIV prevention. Its a good thing to work with the media and build a forum to
talk about these things. There are still many places in Cambodia that the Government and NGOs cant
reach so we need their help. Most people can afford to buy a radio we talked to them through our
media show, sharing messages and information that they want to know.

International HIV/AIDS Alliance
Technical Support Hub for South East
Asia and the Pacic
In May 2009 KHANA took over as the host of the International HIV/AIDS Alliance South East Asia and Pacic (SEAP)
Regional Technical Support Hub. The core objective of the hub is to provide high quality and contextually appropriate
technical support services to community based organizations working in HIV impact mitigation and prevention. The focus
of the hub is to promote meaningful south to south technical transfer by identifying and building capacity of technical support
providers within the region using proven and evidence-based models. The Hub is grateful to receive direct funding
investment from AusAID to support achievement of these goals. The hub draws upon good practice standards and tools
developed by the International HIV/AIDS Alliance as well as other best practice in the region. The hub engages the services
of a database of experienced and junior technical support providers, who are matched to the needs of CBOs in the region.
During 2009 the hub was involved in a number of technical support and capacity building assignments including:
Financial systems strengthening and organizational development for Alliance Linking and Country Organizations
in Indonesia, Myanmar and Thailand
Development and implementation support to a methadone maintenance therapy peer-led program for
Alliance China
Development of a strategy to mainstream gender and sexuality into KHANA operations and programs
Preparation of a Global Fund monitoring and evaluation manual for regional use
Organizational and compliance support for civil society principal recipient of the Global Fund in Indonesia
In November 2009, new TSPs were trained in Harm Reduction and
oriented with Alliances Good Practice Guide and Quality
Programming Standards.
Another key area of focus of the hub is to contribute to the evidence
base for regional community programming through participatory
research. In 2009 two signicant research assignments were
undertaken. First, a regional mapping of youth sexual and
reproductive health networks and organizations was supported by
UNFPA. This explored youth-led and youth-serving networks in 21
countries, complete with strategic recommendations (full report and
separate directory of organizations available on request). The second
research, supported by UNICEF and governed by a steering
committee led by the Ministry of Education & Youth Services, is
ongoing (nal report expected by September 2010). It is an
exploration of protective and risky behaviours in Cambodian youth
aged 10 to 24. Targeting most at risk adolescents, issues around
sex, drug taking and alcohol are examined to help inform adolescent
programming in the region.
Future Plans
In the coming year, the Hub will focus on enhancing its internal
systems; generating lessons learned; increasing cadre mentoring;
increasing partnership-working with key organizations such as
APN+; and exploring broadening the scope of HIV interventions with
other programs such as sexual reproductive health and gender. In
its rst year of operations, we believe the Hub has achieved a solid
beginning and a promising future. The Hub is a viable mechanism
to provide CBOs with strategic technical support that multiplies
their impact and contributions to national responses, and promises
long-term value for the life of the community sector response to AIDS
across Asia-Pacic.
