Criteria for Partnership

The U. S. Agency for International Development's Office of HIV/AIDS has an open-door policy and invites all businesses to partner in the fight against HIV/AIDS.

Responsible corporate citizens investing or doing business overseas devote considerable resources to health, education and other similar programs that are not a part of their core business expertise. At the same time, USAID and its partners are implementing these types of programs. USAID's extensive field presence and technical expertise provide its comparative advantage to catalyze, integrate, coordinate, and facilitate public-private alliances among stakeholders to avail HIV/AIDS prevention, care and treatment. Therefore, it makes sense to facilitate linkages between corporations and the social services programs being carried out by USAID and its partners.

Objectives

The goal of the alliances between the USAID's Office of HIV/AIDS and for-profit organizations is to avail HIV/AIDS prevention, care and treatment by addressing the following three key objectives:

1. The dissemination of relevant information by USAID to businesses affected by HIV/AIDS in the developing world.
   

2. The creation of an environment of collaboration with businesses and key stakeholders to leverage available in-country assistance and identify opportunities for expansion of services.
   
   USAID's Office of HIV/AIDS is committed to developing and strengthening seamless mechanisms to provide quality and timely assistance to partners to ensure effective and coordinated implementation of HIV/AIDS programs.
   
   By coordinating private sector corporation initiatives with in-country Ministries of Health officials, U.S. embassy officials and USAID missions, sustainable resources are increased.
   

3. The commitment of USAID and businesses to provide leadership in shaping national HIV/AIDS policy.
