title: Scaling Up HIV/AIDS programs to national coverage.
abstract: The most important issue in the fight against HIV/AIDS is how to scale up existing programs that are only reaching small numbers of people to the national level. Here, I present suggestions on how to tackle the daunting challenge of building truly national HIV/AIDS programs, based on insights gained from participatory, decentralized rural development experiences and from HIV/AIDS programs.
