Our Partners |
|

During 2006, AMICAALL Burkina Faso continued its efforts to expand partnerships with organisations working in the country, and identified specific areas for collaboration aimed at enhancing municipal-based responses to HIV. A dialogue has been initiated with the Netherlands Development Organisation (SNV) and the German Technical Cooperation (GTZ). Some highlights:
 |
The National AIDS Programme/Committee - provided US$50,000 to support programme activities, and is working with AMICAALL Burkina Faso to enhance monitoring and evaluation at the local level that can feed into the national response to HIV.
|
|
UNDP, UNAIDS, UNICEF and the World Bank – partnership and resource mobilisation activities have been undertaken and collaboration is being expanded.

SNV and GTZ - discussions underway on possible collaboration and partnership.
