5. V- IMAAD Multisectorial project (OMS) guidelines & training materials for primary health care personal in low income countries. Simplified guidelines for nurses, nurses aids, community health workers working with MD & under supervision.

6. VI- Decentralization Vision Better coverage and access to therapy of ARV for the majority of PLHIV Basically, strengthening services at peripheral and referral site

7. VIII- Approach Background CDC/PEPFAR initiate decentralization process long time ago Decentralization of care trough IMAAD HCR SSPE HCR becomes ARV sites as referral center according to UCS strategy SSPE, first contact within the health system, leaving means to detect HIV & providing follow up for PLHIV Sites of excellence…………………………………………….

8. IX- Main Aspects of the approach (strategy) Select evidence based interventions and according to the prevalence Maximize human resources (Existing Staff) Implement Standardized clinical protocols and alleviated follow up Work with community, PLHIV in program designing management and provision of care (in decision making) Select cost effective interventions, notably, essential medicines.

15. XIX-Areas for PANCAP intervention Viral burden OI IMAA training Resistance surveillance M & E

16. XX- Conclusion Multisectoral approach is a key element for decentralization Partnership is essential to MSPP to reach universal care for PLHIV
