EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction In 2010, UNDP, on behalf of the Joint UN Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS), convened the Global Commission on HIV and the Law (the Global Commission) to examine legal and human rights issues through an HIV lens, increase awareness among key constituencies on issues of rights and law, and engage with and strengthen civil society. The Global Commission spent 18 months on extensive research, consultation, analysis and deliberation so as to inform action- oriented recommendations to strengthen work around HIV and the law. The Commission’s findings and recommendations remain relevant and important to the HIV response, not only historically but moving forward. This independent Global Commission was comprised of fourteen distinguished individuals from diverse disciplines and nationalities, each with extensive experience and expertise on matters of public health, human rights, law or development, and a Technical Advisory Group (TAG). The Global Commission was created at the behest of the UNAIDS Programme Coordinating Board and UNDP served as the Secretariat. This executive summary presents abridged findings from an external evaluation of the impacts and legacy of the Global Commission on HIV and the Law. It explores the fulfilment of the Commission’s objectives, taking into account the perspectives and experiences

  • Immigrants' and Refugees' Unmet Reproductive Health Demands in Botswana: Perceptions of Public Healthcare Providers
    Original Research: Immigrants’ and refugees’ unmet reproductive health demands in Botswana Immigrants’ and refugees’ unmet reproductive health demands in Botswana: Perceptions of public healthcare providers a Oucho JO, PhD b Ama NO, PhD a Centre for Research in Ethnic Relations, University of Warwick, United Kingdom b Department of Statistics, University of Botswana, Gaborone, Botswana Correspondence to: Dr John Oucho, e-mail: [email protected] Keywords: contraceptive; immigrants; refugees; doctors; nurses; healthcare providers Abstract Background: The healthcare of Batswana (citizens of Botswana) as indicated in the country’s Vision 2016 is one of the top priorities of the government of Botswana, yet Botswana’s National Health Policy, the Immigration Policy and the National Sexual and Reproductive Health Programme Framework all are silent on the obligations of the government to provide health services to the immigrant and refugee population. In view of the high prevalence of HIV/AIDS in Botswana, South Africa and other sub-Saharan countries, it is critical that reproductive health services be as affordable and accessible for the immigrants and refugees as they are for other residents in Botswana. This study measured the views of the primary healthcare providers in Botswana on the perceived reproductive health needs of immigrants and refugees and the availability and accessibility of reproductive healthcare services to the immigrant and refugee populations in the country. This information will be important for policy makers, the government of Botswana and the private sector to shape intervention measures to assist immigrants and refugees in seeking and accessing the desired reproductive health services. Methods: The study targeted all 4 667 medical doctors and nurses who were serving in various hospitals and clinics in 23 health districts of Botswana as at June 2005 when this study was conducted.

We draw from a large research Article History: study assessing performance of the Botswana Ministry of Health (MoH) to evaluate the performance of public hospital Received: 30 June 2014 system using the World Health Organization Health Systems Performance Assessment Framework (WHO HSPAF). Accepted: 9 September 2014 ePublished: 13 September 2014 We aimed to evaluate performance of Botswana public hospital system; relate findings of the assessment to the potential for improvements in hospital performance; and determine the usefulness of the WHO HSPAF in assessing performance of hospital systems in a developing country. Methods: This article is based on data collected from document analysis, 54 key informants comprising senior managers and staff of the MoH (N= 40) and senior officers from stakeholder organizations (N= 14), and surveys of 42 hospital managers and 389 health workers. Data from documents and transcripts were analyzed using content and thematic analysis while data analysis for surveys was descriptive determining proportions and percentages. Results: The organizational structure of the Botswana’s public hospital system, authority and decision-making are highly centralized. Overall physical access to health services is high. However, challenges in the distribution of facilities and inpatient beds create inequities and inefficiencies.

    C ASES IN G LOBAL H EALTH D ELIVERY GHD-007 APRIL 2011 Botswana’s Program for Preventing Mother-to-Child HIV Transmission In spring 2008, siX years after starting to reinvigorate the underperforming prevention of mother-to- child HIV transmission (PMTCT) program in Francistown, Botswana’s second largest city, Dr. Tracy Creek reflected on the program from her office in Atlanta, Georgia. A pediatrician by training, Creek was also the medical epidemiologist for the PMTCT team at the Global AIDS Program of the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The CDC had worked in Botswana since 1996, and when Creek arrived in 2002, it was expanding its PMTCT efforts through a joint program known as BOTUSA. Botswana’s PMTCT program was three years old in 2002 but was reaching precious few pregnant women — in spite of what seemed to be sound policy, sufficient resources, and ample political will. Creek worked hard over the neXt siX years to help the Government of Botswana (GoB) implement changes that would reduce rates of mother-to-child transmission to less than 4%. As Creek drafted the conclusions of the Report on Botswana’s National Program for Early Infant Diagnosis of HIV, one of the key evaluations of PMTCT program performance between November 2006 and March 2008, she had to suggest further improvements to help the Ministry of Health move toward its goal of eradicating pediatric HIV. Overview of Botswana Botswana is a landlocked country bordered by South Africa to the south, by Namibia to the north and west, and Zimbabwe to the north and east (see Exhibit 1 for map of Africa).
