- Abstract
"The Commission believes the Report deepens and refines the understanding of Asia’s pandemic, and pinpoints the critical components of a viable and sustainable long-term response that can curb AIDS in Asia.
The Report includes key implementation strategies at both the policy and operational levels. The challenge now lies in translating these into effective action throughout the region.
During its deliberations, the Commission was often asked for whom this Report was intended. Was it for planners, or policy designers, or politicians, or opinion-makers, or activists, or the media? The answer is: all these and more."
