'Battling HIV/AIDS' sets out principles and provides advice on the procurement of HIV/AIDS medicines and related supplies for programs scaling up antiretroviral therapy (ART) and associated health services. This technical guide examines the elements required to establish and ensure continuity of supplies, including medicines and other commodities. It provides extensive guidance on key topics: Quality Assurance, Selection and Quantification methods, Intellectual Property Rights, Procurement Strategies, Pricing and Financing, the Supply Cycle, and Policy Issues. Specializing in procurement for HIV-related programs, Battling HIV/AIDS is a valuable resource for implementing agencies and donors dealing with HIV/AIDS related procurement.
