Abstract

This paper evaluates World Bank activities to prevent and mitigate the effects of AIDS in all regions of the developing world during fiscal years 1986 to 1996. It first proritizes HIV-prevention and treatment interventions using the principles of public economies. Based on this framework, it assesses the appropriateness of Bank lending and grants, Bank Country Assistance Strategies, and country economic and sector work. While the Bank provided extensive assistance for efforts to collect information (surveillance and behavioral studies), support was less extensive for interventions that focus on reducing risky behaviors of those at highest risk for contracting and transmitting HIV.
