Abstract:
Objective To develop an accurate understanding of the policy impact of China-UK HIV/AIDS Prevention and Care Project.Methods Questionnaires and face-to-face interviews were employed for 20 key informants in Beijing including government officials,NGO workers,medical professionals,scholars,police officers,and representatives of international organizations involved in AIDS issues in China.Results The project was noted for its scale and a strong guarantee for fund allocation.It was also noted for having broken some policy taboos.The experience gained from the project was integrated into local policy development and became the evidence base for national policymaking.Conclusion Guided by scientific evidence,the China-UK Project has produced excellent experience for developing national AIDS prevention and control strategy by applying pilot-study based management and making continuous improvement through practice,but its sustainability is challenged when the Project ends.
