Breaking the HIV/AIDS Chain
A Human Development Challenge
Posted on: January 01, 2004
The report discusses the general status of HIV/AIDS in Ghana, including a look at the pattern of the disease, how it is regarded by society, its potential impact on the well-being of Ghanaians and the way it is being managed by both the public and private sectors. The underlying argument is that attempts to accelerate development in Ghana, to achieve local development aspirations as well as the MDGs would be undermined unless the state and society at large take direct steps to curb the devasting spread of the disease.
