Common elements for success

Common elements for success
There are common elements to these success stories. In general, both Thailand and
Uganda:
• responded to the AIDS epidemic quickly and decisively;
• had leadership commitment from the highest levels for active
involvement in their respective HIV-prevention programmes;
• used a multisectoral approach and achieved broad public consensus
for support;
• avoided stigmatization and included important aspects of care for
HIV-infected persons;
• developed local responses to a locally-perceived threat;
• benefited from international public health and scientific collaboration; and
• had international donors playing essential roles in programme financing.
