Abstract
African governments have made commitments to manage HIV/AIDS effectively. They have made these commitments in the African continent and abroad, at times even pledging to achieve specific measurable targets. This makes it possible to verify achievements of targets. However, to succeed they need to work closely with all sectors of society, ensuring that the brightest minds, most energetic people and enthusiastic service providers are brought together to draw up and implement national strategic plans.-
