Description:

This paper reviews data, studies, and other information on HIV/AIDS impacts on human resources in sub-Saharan Africa. The purpose is to guide the development of an instrument to conduct HIV/AIDS human resource assessments in the health sector. Until now, inadequate attention has been devoted to this critical step in responding to the epidemic. Such assessments can assist policy makers and advocacy groups to shape and accelerate the implementation of national HIV/AIDS policies and programs throughout the continent.
