VL - 46 IS - 2 U2 - w30 N2 - This article sets out to explain the basis of status ambiguity of the Houses of Chiefs and Traditional Councils in Ghana and the implications of this ambiguity on the status of the administrative personnel working in them. The interest was necessitated by complaints from administrative personnel in the Houses of Chiefs who were excluded from the general salary enhancement to all civil servants in Ghana in 2007. Between 2007 and 2009, research was conducted in all the 10 Regional Houses of Chiefs, in the National House of Chiefs and at the Ministry of Chieftaincy and Culture (MCC). While interviews were the main methods used at the MCC, it was combined with observations at the Houses of Chiefs. Primary and secondary documents were also consulted in the process. Data revealed that the Houses of Chiefs serve as ' customary' courts for chieftaincy disputes and over the years, have incorporated certain practices of the English common law into their proceedings. Thus, they are neither customary courts in the strictest sense, nor common law courts, which equally explains the difficulty in determining whether or not the administrative personnel in these Houses are civil servants AV - Elektronisch artikel Y2 - 2014/07/21/ M3 - 378036041 L3 - http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/07329113.2014.902652 ER - TY - BOOK ID - 3120 T1 - Africa's quest for food security : what is the role of urban agriculture?

VL - 28 IS - 2 U2 - w30 N2 - Communication on HIV and AIDS says a great deal about how people are humanised or dehumanised; about how they should live and die. With this in mind, from a critical ubuntu-centric philosophical perspective, this article breaks new ground by researching aspects of the You Campaign, the most widely accessed HIV and AIDS social marketing campaign on the African continent. Questions arise as to how Africans are represented and gendered in selected advertisements of this campaign. The findings suggest that it is important to acknowledge and reflect that Africans are not homogenous but diverse, and should be targeted more appropriately. In one instance, poorly formulated attempts to advance women's health issues may inadvertently have perpetuated gender-based oppressive practices. There is, furthermore, a need for research into the influences Western sponsors have on African health communication, particularly where recipients do not necessarily trust the source of such information. Broad concerns are raised about the need to ensure that communication on HIV and AIDS does not assume the appearance of propaganda. Overall, the article constitutes a humanist call for a recognition of the existential experiences of Africans affected by HIV and AIDS, and an enquiry into whether this approach in communication grants people recognition and dignity, as ubuntu demands.

VL - 13 IS - 2 U2 - w30 N2 - As the search for more effective HIV prevention strategies continues, increased attention is being paid to the potential role of cash transfers in prevention programming in sub-Saharan Africa. To date, studies testing the impact of both conditional and unconditional cash transfers on HIV-related behaviours and outcomes in sub-Saharan Africa have been relatively small-scale and their potential feasibility, costs and benefits at scale, among other things, remain largely unexplored. This article examines elements of a successful cash transfer program from Latin America and discusses challenges inherent in scaling-up such programs. The authors attempt a cost simulation of a cash transfer program for HIV prevention in South Africa comparing its cost and relative effectiveness - in number of HIV infections averted - against other prevention interventions. If a cash transfer program were to be taken to scale, the intervention would not have a substantial effect on decreasing the force of the epidemic in middle- and low-income countries. The integration of cash transfer programs into other sectors and linking them to a broader objective such as girls' educational attainment may be one way of addressing doubts raised by the authors regarding their value for HIV prevention AV - Elektronisch artikel Y2 - 2014/07/22/ M3 - 378037064 L3 - http://dx.doi.org/10.2989/16085906.2014.943251 ER - TY - JOUR ID - 3096 T1 - Appointment of constitutional adjudicators in Africa : some perspectives on how different systems yield similar outcomes A1 - Fombad,Charles Manga Y1 - 2014/// N1 - Bibliogr., notes KW - Africa KW - constitutional courts KW - labour recruitment KW - legal practitioners RP - NOT IN FILE SP - 249 EP - 275 JA - The Journal of Legal Pluralism and Unofficial Law: (2014), vol.46, no.2, p.249-275. VL - 46 IS - 2 U2 - w30 N2 - The last decade has seen the judiciary's legitimacy come under increasing scrutiny as more and more sensitive and politically charged battles are fought in the courts. These have not only placed constitutional adjudicators in awkward situations but raised questions about how they are chosen. This paper critically examines, compares and contrasts the systems that operate in some Anglophone, Francophone and Lusophone African countries. It starts by underscoring the importance and significance of the method of appointing constitutional adjudicators. It then examines the divergent approaches to the appointment of constitutional adjudicators. From an analysis of the different approaches used, it shows that political involvement, and sometimes interference leading to politicisation of the judiciary, is a common phenomenon in all jurisdictions on the continent with the differences being only in the degree of interference. It, therefore, proposes constitutional entrenchment of a model of constituting the Judicial Service Commissions or Conseil Sup‚rieur de la Magistrature that limits the powers of the executives, who often also control the legislature. Whilst it is clearly undesirable both from the perspectives of the law and that of political legitimacy to exclude politicians from playing any role in the appointment of judges generally and constitutional adjudicators in particular, the paper argues that their role should be reduced to ensure that they will not be in a position to manipulate or control judges AV - Elektronisch artikel Y2 - 2014/07/21/ M3 - 378036068 L3 - http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/07329113.2014.932961 ER - TY - JOUR ID - 3088 T1 - Barriers and facilitators to the uptake of voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC) among adolescent boys in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa A1 - George,Gavin Y1 - 2014/// N1 - Bibliogr., notes KW - boys KW - circumcision KW - health care KW - South Africa RP - NOT IN FILE SP - 179 EP - 187 JA - African Journal of AIDS Research: (2014), vol.13, no.2, p.179-187. VL - 13 IS - 2 U2 - w30 N2 - Epidemiological modelling has concluded that if voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC) is scaled up in high HIV prevalence settings it would lead to a significant reduction in HIV incidence rates. Following the adoption of this evidence by the WHO, South Africa has embarked on an ambitious VMMC programme. However, South Africa still falls short of meeting VMMC targets, particularly in KwaZulu-Natal, the epicentre of the HIV/AIDS epidemic. A qualitative study was conducted in a high HIV prevalence district in KwaZulu-Natal to identify barriers and facilitators to the uptake of VMMC amongst adolescent boys. Focus group discussions with both circumcised and uncircumcised boys were conducted in 2012 and 2013. Analysis of the data was done using the framework approach and was guided by the Social Cognitive Theory focussing on both individual and interpersonal factors influencing VMMC uptake. Individual cognitive factors facilitating uptake included the belief that VMMC reduced the risk of HIV infection, led to better hygiene and improvement in sexual desirability and performance. Cognitive barriers related to the fear of HIV testing (and the subsequent result and stigmas), which preceded VMMC. Further barriers related to the pain associated with the procedure and adverse events. The need to abstain from sex during the six-week healing period was a further prohibiting factor for boys. Timing was crucial, as boys were reluctant to get circumcised when involved in sporting activities and during exam periods. Targeting adolescents for VMMC is successful when coupled with the correct messaging. Service providers need to take heed that demand creation activities need to focus on the benefits of VMMC for HIV risk reduction, as well as other non-HIV benefits. Timing of VMMC interventions needs to be considered when targeting school-going boys AV - Elektronisch artikel Y2 - 2014/07/22/ M3 - 378037099 L3 - http://dx.doi.org/10.2989/16085906.2014.943253 ER - TY - JOUR ID - 3090 T1 - Jobs, food, taxis and journals : complexities of implementing Stepping Stones and Creating Futures in urban informal settlements in South Africa A1 - Gibbs,Andrew Y1 - 2014/// N1 - Bibliogr., notes KW - AIDS KW - health education KW - informal settlements KW - South Africa KW - violence KW - youth RP - NOT IN FILE SP - 161 EP - 167 JA - African Journal of AIDS Research: (2014), vol.13, no.2, p.161-167. VL - 13 IS - 2 U2 - w30 N2 - This paper seeks to refocus debates on structural interventions away from 'assessing' their effectiveness towards understanding processes around how such interventions are implemented. Implementation Science is focused on understanding potential challenges of translating interventions from highly controlled conditions into ' real life' settings. Using the case study of Stepping Stones and Creating Futures a structural and behavioural intervention to reduce intimate partner violence and HIV risk behaviours amongst young women and men in urban informal settlements in South Africa, the authors explore the challenges of implementing such an approach. They move beyond simply describing challenges of implementing, to understand how these challenges had an impact on the safe social space the intervention seeks to create as its underlying theory of change. The authors identify four major challenges of implementation: taxi fares, food provided during the intervention, young people's ongoing need to work and journals provided during the intervention. They suggest that, in different ways, these factors all impinged on the emergence of a safe social space. Understanding the challenges of implementing the intervention is critical for reflecting on scaling up interventions. Central to this is the need to work with participants to help them negotiate the challenges of participating in interventions AV - Elektronisch artikel Y2 - 2014/07/22/ M3 - 378037072 L3 - http://dx.doi.org/10.2989/16085906.2014.927777 ER - TY - BOOK ID - 3084 T1 - Africa's first welfare state : the experience of South African firms doing business in Botswana A1 - Grobbelaar,Neuma A1 - Tsotetsi,Kaemete Y1 - 2005/// N1 - Met bijl., noten, samenvatting KW - Botswana KW - business KW - business enterprises KW - economic relations KW - foreign trade KW - investments KW - South Africa RP - NOT IN FILE EP - 114 CY - [Braamfontein] PB - South African Institute of International Affairs U2 - w30 T3 - Business in Africa report ; no. 5 SN - 1-919969-25-X pbk AV - AFRIKA 47385 Y2 - 2014/07/24/ M3 - 293440921 ER - TY - BOOK ID - 3082 T1 - Perle choisie : poŠmes A1 - Guisse,Abdoulaye Y1 - 2012/// KW - poetry (form) KW - Senegal RP - NOT IN FILE EP - 34 CY - [Dakar] PB - ditions Maguilen U2 - w30 SN - 2-87774-020-X AV - AFRIKA Lit.9699 Y2 - 2014/07/21/ M3 - 375916466 ER - TY - BOOK ID - 3119 T1 - Is bilateral aid responding to good governance in Africa?

VL - 40 IS - 2 U2 - w30 N2 - The examination of co-residential household arrangements has been a mainstay in demographic analysis, based on the assumption that those with whom one lives are the most important influences in one's life. In contrast, far less is known about the spaces not shared but none the less crucially important in the lives of children. In this analysis, the authors bring together detailed ethnographic data on kin connectivity with geographical information system (GIS) data in a rural area of South Africa, in order to: 1) describe the spatial distribution of kin from a child's perspective, with special attention paid to the role of circular migrants who constitute a critical point of spatial dispersion; 2) examine how type of kinship (maternal vs paternal) and 3) socio-economic status intersect with spatial distribution. The authors use a three-category typology of kin spatial arrangement that reflects employment constraints, patterns of union formation and norms of kin obligation. Specifically, they find that 1) the high-density rural node with extensive dispersion is associated with economic and union stability and access to maternal and paternal kin; whereas 2) the rural node with limited dispersion faces greater economic vulnerability and often operates in the absence of formal unions; and 3) the rural node with minimal dispersion offers the least amount of economic security and is almost always dominated by single mothers reliant on maternal kin.

It is also a story of how the Kimberley Process -- the international initiative created to ensure that the trade in diamonds does not fund violence and civil war -- has lost its way SN - 1-89732-019-1 AV - Elektronisch document Y2 - 2014/07/22/ M3 - 371637740 L3 - http://www.swradioafrica.com/Documents/Diamonds%20and%20Clubs.pdf ER - TY - BOOK ID - 3080 T1 - Consensus et f‚d‚ralisme au Congo-Brazzaville : modernisation et partage A1 - Mationgo MBoungou,S‚bastien Y1 - 2013/// N1 - Bibliogr.: p.

VL - 13 IS - 2 U2 - w30 N2 - Alcohol consumption has been associated with high risk sexual behaviour among key populations such as female sex workers. The authors explored the drivers of alcohol consumption and its relationship to high risk sexual behaviour. Participants were drawn from a cohort of 1 027 women selected from 'hot spots' in the suburbs of Kampala city. The authors conducted 3 in-depth interviews with 40 female sex workers between 2010 and 2011. Data were analysed thematically, focusing on alcohol use within the context of sex work. Alcohol consumption was very high with only seven women reporting that they did not drink. Alcohol consumption was driven by the emotional and economic needs of the participants, but also promoted by clients who encouraged consumption. Many sex workers only started drinking alcohol when they joined sex work on the advice of more experienced peers, as a way to cope with the job. Alcohol was blamed for unsafe sex, acts of violence and poor decision making which increased sexual and physical violence. Alcohol was reported to affect medication adherence for HIV-positive women who forgot to take medicine. The findings suggest that the drivers of alcohol consumption are multifaceted in this group and require both individual and structural interventions. Alcohol reduction counselling can be supportive at the individual level and should be an integral part of HIV prevention programmes for female sex workers and others such as patrons in bars. The counselling should be addressed in a sensitive manner to bar owners and managers AV - Elektronisch artikel Y2 - 2014/07/22/ M3 - 378037056 L3 - http://dx.doi.org/10.2989/16085906.2014.927779 ER - TY - BOOK ID - 3079 T1 - Laff Lafrikain A1 - Moss Y1 - 2013/// KW - Cameroon KW - comic strips (form) KW - social life KW - villages RP - NOT IN FILE EP - 45 CY - Paris PB - L'Harmattan U2 - w30 T3 - Harmattan BD ; 18 N2 - Gunther Moss, jeune auteur camerounais, est all‚ traquer la modernit‚ au fin fond de la brousse, dans un abŒme de ruralit‚ o— la tradition ne parvient pourtant pas … rester … l'‚cart des derniers d‚veloppements du monde contemporain.

VL - 28 IS - 2 U2 - w30 N2 - This article argues that recontextualising applicable theories of Frantz Fanon through knowledge-seeking art practices can contribute to the 'decolonisation of the mind' in a contemporary South African context. The multimodal social intervention, entitled 'After Math: An Exploration of Temporality, Wounding and Consequence' , hosted by the Apartheid Museum in Johannesburg, South Africa, in August 2012 (principal artist and curator Farieda Nazier), is discussed and analysed. The exhibition and this retrospective article are grounded in Nazier's explorations and subsequent application of Fanonian theories and broader postcolonial postulations of place, gender and class. The intervention borrows from Fanon's theories and phenomenological approach to racial discrimination, using them as a point of departure to evoke memory and convey personal struggles within an apartheid and post-apartheid society through a number of visual and embodied modalities.

The Igbo language is one of the favoured languages and, by its new status, is expected to serve as the language of the legislature and education at the primary level. The 20th century witnessed research efforts by both corporate bodies and individuals in various areas of the Igbo language especially orthography, metalanguage, and lexicography to enhance its capacity to cope with its elaborated functions. Consequently, this study aims to review research efforts in the Igbo language in the 20th century and to propose a programme of research for the language in the present century. The proposed programme may serve as a blueprint for research in African languages with similar status planning experience as the Igbo language. Bibliogr., sum.

This article aims to analyse obituaries appearing in a Kenyan newspaper. Specifically, it investigates the schematic structure and language used with the aim of finding out the social perception and attitudes that Kenyans have towards the dead. The data comprise 356 announcements collected from the Daily Nation, one of the leading dailies in Kenya. The data are analysed both qualitatively and quantitatively. The genre analysis of the data reveals six obligatory moves in the structure of obituaries with some elements within the moves being optional. The research concludes that obituaries in Kenya can be considered as a genre with a distinct structure. The social cultural perceptions, values and attitudes that society has towards death greatly influence the language used in the writing of obituaries. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

It argues that, while the Court rightly acknowledges that male gender identity is problematic and that societal norms and expectations relating to masculinity are core causes of the subordination of women, many of its judgements uphold and reinforce outdated, essentialist, hetero-normative and restrictive conceptions of masculinity. These notions appear to leave little room for men to transcend conventional gender stereotypes, to form and adapt their identities freely and to participate in the transformation of gendered norms.

While this issue has recently been debated in the legal sphere and in the popular media, these discussions lack grounding in the lived experience of people in communities where ukuthwala is practised. Drawing on extensive ethnographic fieldwork, this paper discusses ukuthwala as a contemporary practice. The author shows that ukuthwala is a site of negotiation over rights to gender equality in rural communities, which have long been socially stratified according to gender and generation. As such, the auhor shows that ukuthwala is a site of anxiety over changing structures of gender power and generational authority. Questions of pragmatic concern for public health in relation to ukuthwala are also raised. Notes, ref., sum.

Ninety-four in-depth interviews were conducted with 28 Swazi men and women (14 of each sex) between the ages of 20 and 39 to explore participants' sexual partnership histories, including motivations for sexual relationships which carried high HIV risk. Concurrency was normative, with most men and women having had at least one concurrent sexual partnership, and all women reporting having had at least one partner who had a concurrent partner. Men distinguished sexual partnerships that were just for sex from those that were considered to be 'real relationships', while women represented most of their relationships, even those which included significant financial support, as being based on love. Besides being motivated by love, concurrent sexual partnerships were described as motivated by a lack of sexual satisfaction, a desire for emotional support and/or as a means to exact revenge against a cheating partner. Social and structural factors were also found to play a role in creating an enabling environment for high-risk sexual partnerships. These factors included social pressure and norms; a lack of social trust; poverty and a desire for material goods; and geographical separation of partners AV - Elektronisch artikel Y2 - 2014/07/22/ M3 - 378037048 L3 - http://dx.doi.org/10.2989/16085906.2014.927781 ER - TY - BOOK ID - 3121 T1 - Exploring the role and transformative potential of human rights in development practice and food security : a case study from Malawi A1 - Sarelin,Alessandra Y1 - 2012/// N1 - Originally presented as the author's thesis (Ph.D)--bo Akademi, 2012 Bibliogr.: p. 226-247. - Met noten, Zweedse samenvatting KW - food security KW - human rights KW - Malawi RP - NOT IN FILE CY - bo, Finland PB - bo Akademi University Press U1 - Free access.

VL - 13 IS - 2 U2 - w30 N2 - Given the pivotal role of first sex in the development of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) practices, there is a need for more contextualised and nuanced understandings of young people's early sexual debut experiences. This study used sexual history narratives to investigate how South African men and women experience and attribute meaning to their sexual debut, and their SRH practices. In light of the gendered disparities among young people's SRH awareness and risk, differences between men and women's narratives of sexual debut were assessed. Fifty sexual history interviews were conducted with men and 25 sexual history interviews with women, with participants purposively sampled from three age categories, a range of cultural and racial backgrounds and urban and rural sites across five provinces. Narrative interviews were designed to elicit stories around participants' early knowledge of sex and sexual experimentation, their range of sexual relationships and SRH practices. The data were analysed using a thematic approach. Participants generally reflected on their early sexual experiences with feelings of inadequacy and disappointment. While men appeared to hold greater decision-making power than women at sexual debut, descriptions of men's early sexual experiences were often characterised by respect, intimacy and vulnerability. Many men attributed the timing of their sexual debut to peer pressure, which typically generated higher social status and rarely included consideration of the need to practice safer sex. Several women felt pressured by their partner to sexually debut, which could have informed their perceptions of men being sexually controlling and aggressive. The study demonstrates the value of a narrative approach for generating insights on young people's sexual debut experiences and SRH practices, and the underlying gendered norms and expectations that shape these. The findings indicate the need for gender transformative HIV interventions to take into the diversity of young people's SRH needs and social realities AV - Elektronisch artikel Y2 - 2014/07/22/ M3 - 37803703X L3 - http://dx.doi.org/10.2989/16085906.2014.943252 ER - TY - JOUR ID - 3100 T1 - 'Lame ducks' in the time of HIV/AIDS? : exploring female victimhood in selected HIV/AIDS narratives by Zimbabwean female writers A1 - Tagwirei,Cuthbeth Y1 - 2014/// KW - AIDS KW - prose KW - women writers KW - Zimbabwe RP - NOT IN FILE SP - 216 EP - 228 JA - Critical Arts: (2014), vol.28, no.2, p.216-228. VL - 28 IS - 2 U2 - w30 N2 - This article argues that HIV/AIDS narratives written by Zimbabwean women represent a partial view which positions women at the receiving end of the HIV/AIDS pandemic. Women are portrayed as 'innocent' and naive recipients of a disease which finds its sustenance in the way Zimbabwean institutions such as culture, family and the law condone male sexual victimisation of women. Such a view echoes Maureen Kambarami's (2006) 'women-as-lame-ducks' thesis. By focusing on two narratives, Tendai Westerhorf's Unlucky in love (2005) and Nancy Mahachi-Harper's Echoes in the shadows (2004), the researcher explores the ways in which female victimhood is entrenched in Zimbabwean women's writings about HIV/AIDS. These narratives limit the sexual options available to women in and out of marriage, and stereotype men as callous agents of the disease. By failing to recognise that both men and women can be the victims as well as the perpetrators of abuse, these narratives perpetuate misconceptions about male and female sexuality on the one hand, and HIV/AIDS on the other. Furthermore, portraying female characters as perpetual victims robs women of individual and group agency. Such representations render identities permanent and project the role of women as destined for immanence. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

VL - 28 IS - 2 U2 - w30 N2 - In post-apartheid South Africa, how possible is it for community radio to dissociate from elite practices in terms of media creation and consumption that reflect inclusive and participatory public spheres? This article is based on a study of a current affairs community radio show, Lunchtime Live. The show attempted to capture diverse voices, to offer balanced perspectives between powerful political elites and ordinary citizens, and to create spaces for ordinary citizens in a rural South African town, Grahamstown, to participate in public spheres with the aim of fostering inclusive public discussion and accountability. However, high levels of poverty and inequality made this aspect of citizenship unattainable, especially in view of the costs involved with participating in studio discussions through audience-initiated phone calls. While the diction used on Lunchtime Live was couched in struggle and revolutionary language and pitted the community against the authorities, the audience discussions revealed that the community felt alienated, and that the chasm between them and their leaders may be widening. This was because of the perception that Lunchtime Live shows were, ab initio, tainted by elite participation and frames, which turned many potential and actual audiences against it.

VL - 13 IS - 2 U2 - w30 N2 - Research in high income countries shows parent-child connectedness to be protective against undesirable sexual and reproductive health (SRH) outcomes among young people. Little has been done to understand the nature of parent-child connectedness, the structural factors that impact on connectedness and parents' understanding of how connectedness affects their children's sexual behaviour in sub-Saharan Africa and Tanzania in particular. Ethnographic research involved 30 days of observation in 10 households, 9 focus group discussions and 60 in-depth interviews. Thematic analysis was conducted using NVIVO qualitative data analysis software.The structural factors with greatest influence on connectedness were economic circumstances, gender, social status, state education, and globalisation. Economic circumstances impacted on parent-child connectedness through parents' ability to provide for their children's material needs, and the time their occupation allowed for them to spend with their children and monitor their activities. Appropriate parent-child interactions were shaped by gender norms and by social status in the form of respectability, adolescents' adherence to norms of respect/ obedience shaping their parents' affection. State education affected parents' preferences between children but also undermined parental authority, as did broader globalisation. Connectedness was related to SRH in a bi-directional way: lack of connectedness was linked to young people's low self-esteem and risky sexual behaviour while unplanned pregnancies seriously undermined young women's connectedness with their parents. Since material provision was perceived to be a central element of parent-child connectedness, structural factors limiting provision made transactional sex more likely both through direct material pathways and emotional ones. Motives for transactional sex were said to be material needs and to feel loved and cared for. An important pathway by which structural factors shape adolescent SRH outcomes is through parent-child connectedness, especially parents' ability to spend time with their children and provide for their economic needs. Modifying these structural factors should facilitate parent-child connectedness, which may help delay early sexual intercourse, protect young people against unplanned pregnancy through encouraging communication on contraception use and, overall, promote healthy adolescent development AV - Elektronisch artikel Y2 - 2014/07/22/ M3 - 378037080 L3 - http://dx.doi.org/10.2989/16085906.2014.945387 ER - TY - JOUR ID - 3095 T1 - The end of AIDS : possibility or pipe dream?

VL - 13 IS - 2 U2 - w30 N2 - Globally, in the last 20 years health has improved. In this generally optimistic setting HIV and AIDS accounts for the fastest growing burden of disease. The data show the bulk of this is experienced in Southern Africa. In this region, HIV and AIDS (and tuberculosis [TB]) peaks among young adults. Women carry the greater proportion of infections and provided most of the care.South Africa has the dubious distinction of having the largest number of people living with HIV in the world, 6.4 million. HIV began spreading from about 1990 and today the prevalence among antenatal clinic attendees is 29.5%. A similar situation exists in other nations of the region. It is an expensive disease, requiring more resources than are available, and it is slipping off the global agenda, both in terms of attention and international funding. Those halcyon days of the decade from 2000 to 2010 are over.This paper explores the concept of three transition points: economic, epidemiological and programmatic. The first two have been developed and written about by others. The authors add a third transition point, namely programmatic, argue this is an important concept, and show how it can become a powerful tool in the response to the epidemic. The economic transition point assesses HIV incidence and mortality of people infected with HIV. Until the number of newly infected people falls below the number of deaths of people living with HIV, the demand for treatment and costs will increase. This is a concern for the health sector, finance ministry and all working in the field of HIV. Once an economic transition occurs the treatment future is predictable and the number of people living with HIV and AIDS decreases. This paper plots two more lines. These are the number of new people from the HIV infected pool initiated on treatment and the number of people from the HIV infected pool requiring treatment. This introduces new transition points on the graph. The first when the number of people initiated on treatment exceeds the number of people needing treatment. The second when the number initiated on treatment exceeds the new infections.That is the theory. When the authors applied South African data from the ASSA2008 model, they were able to plot transition points marking progress in the national response. Theauthors argue these concepts can and should be applied to any country or HIV epidemic AV - Elektronisch artikel Y2 - 2014/07/21/ M3 - 378037013 L3 - http://dx.doi.org/10.2989/16085906.2014.927780 ER -
