International HIV/AIDS Alliance in Mongolia
In Mongolia, the Alliance linking organisation National AIDS Foundation (NAF) initiates and promotes community responses to STIs and HIV. The Foundation provides onward financial support to locally based NGOs and community based organisations, contributes to national and local policy development, and improves access to and use of quality information on HIV and STIs. Our programme in Mongolia is currently being supported with funding from the Global Fund. Past donors have included the EC Tacis Programme, Comic Relief and the UK Department for International Development. Since 1999, NAF has been working to generate interest and action on HIV within communities and to ensure that programmes are designed to meet the needs identified by these communities. NAF also supports non-governmental organisations undertaking prevention work with vulnerable and marginalised populations, such as sex workers, men who have sex with men, prisoners, children and young people, and mobile/migrant populations. NAF is currently supporting activities in areas of Mongolia considered to be most vulnerable to HIV, including Ulaanbaatar and border areas and towns such as Darkhan, Orkhon, Dornogovi, Umnogovi and Dornod aimags. Through programmatic and organisational support, NAF mobilises and strengthens the community response to HIV and sexual health. Programmatic support includes training in areas such as sexual health, project design, monitoring and evaluation, fundraising and advocacy. Organisational support includes financial and administrative management. NAF also promotes the participation of civil society in the response to STIs and HIV, working with a wide range of partners to improve the institutional and policy environment.
