    Author: Hallauer J, Gromyko A.
    Journal: Entre Nous Cph Den; 1995 May; (28-29):17-8. PubMed ID: 12222259.
    Abstract:
    A new UN initiative scheduled to begin in 1996 will pool the resources of its various agencies to fight HIV/AIDS. The new program, the UN Joint and Co-sponsored Program on AIDS (UNJCP), will replace the World Health Organization's (WHO) Global Program on AIDS, and will involve UNDP, UNICEF, UNESCO, UNFPA, WHO, and the World Bank. When the program is fully functional, a UNJCP advisor will be assigned to each of the 28 countries of Central and Eastern Europe and the Newly Independent States to coordinate the efforts of other UN agencies with those of nongovernmental and national organizations in planning and implementing country-specific programs. The main aim of the UNJCP is to strengthen the HIV/AIDS prevention and control efforts of individual countries by providing technical and financial assistance to the national programs. In collaboration with co-sponsoring agencies, a UNJCP advisor in any country will help the national AIDS coordinator to plan, implement, administer, monitor, and evaluate the national AIDS prevention program. The authors consider using WHO experience and key areas for UNJCP.
