The EFA Fast Track Initiative: An Assessment of the Responsiveness of Endorsed Education Sector Plans to HIV and AIDS 2008

This report is the second assessment of the responsiveness to HIV of Education Sector Plans which have been appraised and endorsed by the Education for All Fast Track Initiative (EFA-FTI).

The first study was completed in October 2004 (click here to download the report in PDF format) and found that the initial 12 endorsed plans did not adequately address HIV; recommendations were made to strengthen FTI processes.

This second assessment reviews the 8 country education sector plans which were endorsed by EFA-FTI between October 2004 and November 2006.

The second assessment is a collaboration between the UNAIDS Inter-Agency Task Team (IATT) on Education and the EFA-FTI. It has been taken forward by a working group of the IATT, with representatives of Ireland and Canada serving as the bridge to the FTI Partnership.

The review is dealing with a specific set of FTI-related documentation and should not be interpreted as a judgement regarding a country's overall policies or capacity.
