The 2011-2012 National Annual Report on HIV program presents the progress in implementing the strategies and activities articulated in the National Strategic Plan on HIV and AIDS 2009-2012, commonly referred to as the HIV NSP.
The intended purpose of this compendium is to provide program managers, organizations, and policy makers with a menu of indicators to better “know their HIV epidemic/know their response” from a gender perspective. The indicators in the compendium are all either part of existing indicators used i...n studies or by countries or have been adapted from existing indicators to address the intersection of gender and HIV. The indicators can be measured through existing data collection and information systems (e.g. routine program monitoring, surveys) in most country contexts, though some may require special studies or research.

Norma técnica para el control y la eliminación de la tuberculosis programa nacional de control y eliminación de la tuberculosis - Actualización 2021 Resolución Exenta N°60 del Ministerio de Salud, con fecha 14 de enero de 2022
Describir barreras y desafíos en la implementación del Programa de Acción Mundial para Reducir las Brechas de Atención en Salud Mental mhGAP, y determinar la asociación entre facilitadores de implementación, accesibilidad, aceptabilidad y supervisión, en Chocó, Colombia. Métodos. Estudio ev...aluativo de corte transversal, con métodos mixtos y secuenciales. Se contó con la participación de 41 personas (30 correspondientes a personal de salud y 11 personas del área administrativa). Se conformaron cinco grupos focales, en el marco de la formación en mhGAP. Se usó la escala de impulsores de implementación, que determinó factores como: facilitadores del sistema para la implementación, acce- sibilidad de la estrategia, adaptación y aceptabilidad, formación y supervisión en la estrategia. También se realizaron entrevistas semiestructuradas, con un posterior análisis temático. Resultados. Se encontró una correlación estadísticamente significativa entre los componentes de la imple- mentación, lo cual fue reafirmado con la información de las entrevistas. A nivel de las barreras señaladas, se destacan factores como dispersión, conflicto armado, la dificultad para cambiar la perspectiva de la zona en la que se vive y los problemas administrativos para acceder a los tratamientos. Estos factores se abordan en una propuesta de ruta de atención. Conclusiones. En mhGAP en el departamento del Chocó, pese a una adecuada aceptabilidad, acceso y supervisión, se evidencian barreras y desafíos de orden social, geográfico, político, cultural y a nivel de la administración en salud, que podrían ser superados con la implementación de rutas intersectoriales de recu- peración, construidas desde el mismo territorio.
