As part of Enhancing Nigeria’s Response to HIV’s (ENR) program schedule, an annual monitoring and evaluation exercise called the Output Programme Review (OPR) has been designed by the British Government through its United Kingdom Department for International Development (DFID/UKAID). The purpose is to measure the impact of ENR’s activities all over Nigeria.
The first stage of the review was held first on the 15th and 16th of August 2011 in Kaduna with stakeholder meetings in the State AIDS Response, Kaduna State Action Committee on HIV/AIDS (KADSACA), the Kaduna State Critical Mass which consists of Line Ministries (namely Ministries of Health, Education, Information and Local Government, the Kaduna State Local Governments, the Local Government Committees on AIDS (LACAs), the Technical Working Groups (TWGs), the Interfaith Coalition, Civil Society Organisation (CSO) Networks, the HIV/AIDS Networks /Partners and the SLP.
The review took the form of interactive meetings, presentations, and group discussions centered on the strategies adopted for the AIDS Response in Kaduna, the level of commitment and feedback mechanisms, ownership and sustainability plans, mode of collaboration and Big Common Impact Area as well as the ENR exit strategy. Field visits were also organized as a major part of the review to observe IPC (Inter Personal Communication) and HCT (HIV Counseling and Testing) sessions for the general population as well as PLACE (Priorities for Local AIDS Control Efforts) sessions at the Civil Service Club.
The excellent outcomes of the meeting revealed the value of initiating OPR. The Kaduna team received high commendations on their level of commitment and work synergy with stakeholders in the state’s AIDS response. Following the success of Kaduna’s Output Programme Review; a similar review meeting was held in Benue.
