About
Welcome to this unique mapping visualisation of the impact that the International HIV/AIDS Alliance is having on the global AIDS epidemic. The maps provide easy-to-understand information about the Alliance’s global impact and across the four regions where it works: Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe, and Latin America and the Caribbean.
The Alliance puts a high priority on ensuring that we collect and report on our programmes. We understand the need to be transparent and accountable both to our donors and, critically, to our beneficiaries. There is great potential for achieving both these aims by presenting our data in an accessible and user-friendly way. We see this interactive map as just the beginning of a very exciting journey towards a vision where data really can be used to bring the critical work of the Alliance to life.
What the data represents
The data is drawn from the Alliance’s ground-breaking monitoring and reporting system (MRS) which collates data annually from our global partnership of linking organisations across the globe. For each region, it maps data relating to the number of:
- people reached with information, education and communication materials and/or activities;
- people reached directly through services (excluding IEC);
- condoms distributed;
- organisations supported financially;
- decision-makers or leaders reached through advocacy.
In addition, country pages provide data (drawn from the latest UNAIDS statistics) relating to:
- population;
- number of people living with HIV/AIDS;
- prevalence of HIV;
- prevalence of TB.
The mapping visualisation was created on behalf of the Alliance by Cogapp (www.cogapp.com)
