Capacity building

Expert Meeting on HIV/AIDS Estimation and Projection Methods, Bangkok, Thailand. 23-25 April 2007

This workshop was held in close collaboration with partners such as UNAIDS, UNICEF, CDC, FHI and Futures Institute.  This is part of a global consultative process and the results of the consultative meetings will feed into the country, regional and global HIV estimates published regularly by UNAIDS and WHO every year, leading to estimating HIV burden at the country level more accurately.

25 participants from the South-East Asia Region attended the meeting. Participants were introduced to the workbook method for estimates and projections in low-level and concentrated epidemics, with focus on changes/updates, including quality of surveillance.  They learnt about the new features of EPP and spectrum.  It was a hands-on training with practical training.
