Countries/Region- Uganda
The USAID Program in Uganda contributes to GOU’s National Development Plan (NDP) whose goal is to transform Uganda from a peasant to a modern and prosperous country within the next 30 years. USAID has just begun implementing its new, 2011-2015 Country Development Cooperation Strategy (CDCS) with the goal of accelerating Uganda’s transition to a prosperous and modern country.
In Uganda, HIV/AIDS affects predominantly poor individuals and consequently creates physical, social, psychological and economic needs of varying intensity and dimensions. These needs should be addressed in order to optimize the quality of life for those affected. However, no single service provider can entirely meet all of these needs, hence the need for networking among the various providers to ensure that HIV positive individuals and their families access quality HIV counseling and testing services that they require.
