This national investment plan is a renewed call for coordinated action from the public and private sectors, civil society and international partners to reduce Nepal’s HIV burden. Drawing on programmatic data and a 2013 review of Nepal’s national response, a 4-month participatory process was undertaken to develop this plan. Developed in the context of the downward trend in global HIV funding, the introduction of GFATM requirements for a cost-sharing performance-based approach, and the projected resource gap for carrying out the last three years of Nepal’s HIV Strategy 2011-2016, we strategically prioritised our approach to HIV programming and implementation. This plan calls for signifiant focus on reducing the number of new HIV
infections and HIV-related deaths through universal access to prevention, treatment and care services and targeted, evidence-informed investments that benefit key affected populations. There is a pressing need for action in Nepal to tackle: our alarmingly low testing levels among those most affected; the unacceptably low vertical transmission elimination coverage; the programmatic and social barriers that prevent key populations at higher risk from accessing effective and efficient services; and other sexually transmitted infections, tuberculosis and viral hepatitis.
