The National AIDS Strategic Framework (NASF) 2017 - 2021 is designed to provide adequate space and opportunities for communities, civil society, private sector, development partners (bilateral and multi-lateral agencies) and Government institutions to actively participate in the implementation of evidence-based HIV and AIDS programmes, depending on their mandates and comparative advantages.
This NASF was developed through a highly participatory and consultative process and reflects the aspirations of the people of Zambia in their efforts to fight the HIV and AIDS epidemic. The framework will support decentralised implementation with meaningful involvement of communities, PLHIV, Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) and marginalised populations so as not to leave anyone behind in the response.
