HIV/AIDS and STI prevention and care in Rwandan refugee camps in the United Republic of Tanzania
/ 2003

This monograph documents the first large-scale AIDS and STI intervention programme to be implemented during a refugee crisis. It describes the operational aspects of the intervention, the observed impact and the effect this experience had on policies and practices in other refugee situations, among both international and nongovernmental organizations. It discusses the elements and approaches for STI services that will be useful for reproductive health programme managers from government and international organizations as well as nongovernmental organizations involved in relief operations. It is also recommended for district or regional health managers in identifying needed support systems for STI service delivery.
