Policy paper from the Dóchas HIV and AIDS Working Group of which Trócaire is a member calling on the Irish government to renew its commitments on HIV and AIDS.
These include:
- To spend €100 million per year on HIV and other communicable diseases, with 20% dedicated to children;
- To clearly state its strategy for addressing HIV and AIDS in its development and emergency response work;
- And to ensure transparent monitoring and reporting of Irish Aid expenditure on HIV and AIDS.
The Dóchas HIV and AIDS Working Group is a sub-group of Dóchas, the Irish Association of Non- Governmental Development Organisations. It was established in May 2001 to develop common positions on a number of issues related to HIV and AIDS, specifically for the first UN High Level Meeting on HIV.
