UNAIDS/ICSS CM & IF MeetingDar, Tanzania , 21-23 Feb 2012
• 75 reps from civil society, government and UNAIDS met to discuss the Investment Framework, opportunities and challenges in application of this framework at the country level and how UNAIDS should proceed with ensuring its uptake.
![Page 6: The Investment Framework and the community response Mike Podmore, IHAA Aug 2012](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815dea550346895dcc12c9/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Outcome Document recomms.1. All credible expressions of country interest in
uptake of the Investment Framework should be supported.
2. Ensure people living with HIV and communities at greatest risk of infection are equal partners
3. The Investment Framework must become a living document
4. Ensure an effective role for civil society in implementation
5. Outlined support needs from global networks, UNAIDS, Global Fund and PEPFAR

APCASO’s Introductory SIF Seminar 26 April 2012, Bangkok
Objectives: • A Brief Analysis of Current Climate for HIV and
AIDS Policy, Programme, Funding and Advocacy • Understanding the Strategic Investment
Framework and Aligning it with other Key Global Policy Frameworks
• Putting SIF In Context at Country Level • Regional and National Strategies for Advocacy
Participants from 12 national-level HIV organisations from 10 countries in Asia, 7 regional KAP networks and others. Total participants: 25
![Page 8: The Investment Framework and the community response Mike Podmore, IHAA Aug 2012](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815dea550346895dcc12c9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Expected outcomes • Energetic and systematic engagement with SIF
by civil society advocates• Enhanced knowledge and understanding of
major policy frameworks• Identification and analysis of challenges,
opportunities and strategies for civil society advocates to influence and contribute to the national response
• Initiation of ongoing informed dialogue at regional and national levels.
Since this seminar, participants from Cambodia, China, Nepal and Sri Lanka have taken actions to share SIF with their networks and partners; have discussed organising national CS dialogues or consultations with national AIDS commissions and interested donors; have proposed SIF on CCM meeting agenda.

Critical enablers: - Gaps, potential - What new roles?
Dialogue with govts, donors and other stakeholders
Own capacity + competencies
Use SIF to negotiate existing programmes, e.g. GF Renewals
Country Develop framework to mobilise community
Areas of collaboration and opportunities for TA and resources
Regional Networks
Guidance on SIF implementation
Clarity on TA or support for civil society
UCO or focal points – Facilitate process for civil society and enable meaningful participation by CS
UNAIDS
Civil Society – Suggestions and Expectations
AlsoWhat role can Global Fund play for SIF at national level?
(APCASO Introductory Seminar, 26 Apr’12, Bangkok)

• A regional task force or committee (5-6 people from planning group?) to monitor progress of proposed road maps or strategies.
• Need to maintain periodic communications with country advocates on progress of activities.
• Provide TA and tools to support country-level capacity
• Plan for a report-back in mid-2013 or early 2014?
• Create space for SIF dialogue • Advocate with Government• Form SIF-CS working groups – idea of
‘critical mass’ – advocates helping and motivating each other.
• Map SIF against national response (the NSPs)
• Do baseline analysis of:– Investment flows– 6 programme areas– Link enablers to these 6 areas
• Explore or identify possible new roles
Follow Up Needed

Why does the Investment Framework matter for civil society?
![Page 13: The Investment Framework and the community response Mike Podmore, IHAA Aug 2012](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815dea550346895dcc12c9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The IF is key for civil society because:
1. It confirms that communities have an indispensable role in the HIV response and must be seen as an equal partner with government and other stakeholders.
![Page 14: The Investment Framework and the community response Mike Podmore, IHAA Aug 2012](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815dea550346895dcc12c9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
2) It places components such as community centred design and delivery and community mobilisation as ‘critical’ enablers – not ‘nice if you have some extra money’ enablers.
A shift to primary care and community-led approaches is the only way to:
• scale up basic programme interventions to the level needed;
• to reach the hardest to reach populations; • to keep people accessing services; • and for the cost not to spiral out of control
![Page 15: The Investment Framework and the community response Mike Podmore, IHAA Aug 2012](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815dea550346895dcc12c9/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
3) Cost efficiencies are not dependent on under-resourced community responses or exploitation of unpaid labour
• CSS built in (but not explicit)• CHWs costed (but not emphasised)
![Page 16: The Investment Framework and the community response Mike Podmore, IHAA Aug 2012](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815dea550346895dcc12c9/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
4) It gives us an opportunity to articulate the value of integration work at community level
– how the HIV response supports and builds broader health and development priorities
![Page 17: The Investment Framework and the community response Mike Podmore, IHAA Aug 2012](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815dea550346895dcc12c9/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
5) Human rights approach is highlighted as foundation of IF
Programming such as advocacy, stigma reduction and efforts towards supportive laws and practices reduce insurmountable barriers to access
![Page 18: The Investment Framework and the community response Mike Podmore, IHAA Aug 2012](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815dea550346895dcc12c9/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
6) It is an opportunity for dialogue and closer working between civil society, government and other key stakeholders
![Page 19: The Investment Framework and the community response Mike Podmore, IHAA Aug 2012](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815dea550346895dcc12c9/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
What are the limitations of the Investment Framework?
![Page 20: The Investment Framework and the community response Mike Podmore, IHAA Aug 2012](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815dea550346895dcc12c9/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• Theories of change that show the relationships between components of the IF
• How the IF might change in different national epidemic typologies (e.g. concentrated, generalised and mixed epidemics)
• The ‘critical enablers’ need better definition and testing in different contexts and cultures
• How are the needs of women and girls met?• How the IF acts on and supports the
implementation of new science (e.g. TaP)
Gaps and further explanation needed:
![Page 21: The Investment Framework and the community response Mike Podmore, IHAA Aug 2012](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815dea550346895dcc12c9/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Cont.
• How the IF can only work in an enabling legal environment
• Better documentation of best practices in community health approaches
• Improve data supporting effectiveness and costing of community mobilisation activities and costing data on certain programmatic interventions (e.g. sex work)
• Profile the importance of Monitoring and evaluation• Raise role of community system strengthening in
underpinning community interventions (& how it links to the CSS framework)
