Abstract
This paper summarizes key findings of
the epidemiological, response and policy synthesis analysis
carried out in Honduras in 2007, as part of the preparation
of the new national HIV/AIDS strategy, PENSIDA III,
(National Strategic Plan to Fight HIV/AIDS - Plan
Estrategico Nacional de Lucha Contra el VIH/SIDA) 2008-2012.
It presents the most recent data on HIV prevalence, and the
results of models that estimate sources of infection and
likely patterns and trends in future prevalence. The paper
also describes how these data and projections have been
incorporated into the design of Honduras' response to
the epidemic, grounding PENSIDA III's strategic
direction in the data on the epidemic and response in
Honduras, building and improving on previous experience.
