The
success of TI programme is determined not by the work that the NGO’s
do with the community and service providers but also by the effectiveness
of the work done by AIDS control societies with the different service
providers (including STD clinics, Police, Health Services and other
sectors). Thus if AIDS Control Societies and NGO’s work together
participating with the clear understanding that both of them have
synergic roles, there is a possibility that sustained changes in
better services could happen in community. Such sustained changes
can happen only over fairly long time horizons. Till that happens,
the TI’s would also need to improvise and innovate to provide
services that the high risk populations need and costing exercises
should understand this need clearly. This also is a pointer that
sustainability of TI’s is the joint responsibility of AIDS
Control Society and that both NGO and AIDS Control Society have
a part to play to achieve the changes that we seek to achieve. |
