- Abstract
"Asian Development Bank (ADB) support for HIV/AIDS activities in the Pacific has been limited to date. In October 2004, Director, Area B, Pacific Department, attended the Pacific Parliamentarians’ meeting on HIV/AIDS in Suva, Fiji Islands and discussed common issues of concern with representatives of a number of Pacific governments, development partners, and regional agencies, including the Pacific Islands Forum and the Secretariat of the Pacific Community (SPC). In January 2005, a mission participated in the SPC Regional Strategy on HIV/AIDS Implementation meeting, and consulted with key Pacific regional stakeholders in HIV/AIDS. These consultations formed the basis of this proposal for regional technical assistance (TA) including the TA purpose, key activities, consultants’ terms of reference, cost estimates, and financing. The TA framework is in Appendix 1. The concept clearance was approved by the Vice President, Operations 2, on 3 March 2005."
