5. WHO Consultation on Nutrition and HIV/AIDS in
Africa: Evidence, Lessons and Recommendations
for Action Durban, South Africa, 10–13 April 2005
Participants’ Statement
1. HIV/AIDS is affecting more people in eastern and southern Africa
than our fragile health systems can treat, demoralizing more
children than our educational systems can inspire, creating more
orphans than communities can care for, wasting families and
threatening our food systems. The HIV/AIDS epidemic is
increasingly driven by and contributes to factors that also create
malnutrition - in particular, poverty, emergencies and inequalities.
2. In urgent response to this situation, we call for the integration of
nutrition into the essential package of care, treatment and
support for people living with HIV/AIDS and efforts to prevent
infection.
6. Policy Guidance on the Use of Emergency Plan Funds to Address
Food and Nutrition Needs
September 2006
The Emergency Plan has a clear responsibility to support
prevention, treatment and care for people living with HIV/AIDS
(PLWHA), but comprehensively addressing issues of food
insecurity is beyond the scope of the Emergency Plan.
Key precepts of the Emergency Plan include remaining focused
on HIV/AIDS, maximizing leverage with other partners that
provide food resources and providing support for limited food
assistance in defined circumstances.
