Training in Cost-effectiveness Analysis of HIV prevention
The HIVTools Research Group carries out training on the use of economic
and epidemiological modelling techniques to estimate the impact and
cost-effectiveness of different HIV prevention interventions. The
4 day training course is designed to provide participants with an
over-view of the issues associated with such analysis, and to enable
them to become familiar with available tools designed to assist in
the economic evaluation of different HIV prevention activities in
different settings. An interactive workshop environment and practical
real-life examples of analyses from Asia, Africa and Eastern Europe
are used to convey the principles and techniques.
To date trainees include national policy-makers, programme managers,
researchers and project staff in Laos PDR, Ukraine, Bangladesh and
Malawi. Support for attendance at the training workshops has been
provided by DFID, UNDP and the British Council.
