Joint WHO/PEPFAR Meeting on Task Shifting
Kigali, Rwanda, 14 June 2007
In February 2007 the World Health Organization and the Office of the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator (OGAC) convened a meeting in Geneva that was to signal the beginning of a new expert partnership to support Task Shifting in the context of the wider HIV/AIDS and health workforce “Treat, Train, Retain” plan.
Members of the partnership, which includes representatives from HIV programmes and human resources departments from ministries of health, UN agencies, professional associations, academic institutions and representatives from workers associations, reconvened in Kigali, Rwanda on 14 June. This one day meeting represented the continuation of the process of consultation that began in Geneva four months ago.
In the four months since the Geneva consultation there has been remarkable progress. Activities already undertaken, at both the country level and the global level, will lay the groundwork for the development of global guidelines on Task Shifting.
