Roles of the World Health organization (WHo) in condom promotion
UNAIDS recommend use condom in all the interventions it cites to prevent sexually transmitted HIV. It mentions condoms, directly or indirectly, as part of each HIV prevention measure for key audiences (8). UNFPA is working with WHO, UNAIDS and many other partners to generate stronger global commitment, increased financing and collective action to support a strategic approach to Comprehensive Condoms Programming (CCP) to prevent unintended pregnancy and the transmission of STIs including HIV. To help strengthen this approach, UNFPA developed two interrelated tools: the Comprehensive Condom Programming Framework, which describes the work areas that need to be addressed in an effective CCP response, and the TenStep Strategic Approach to Scale Up CCP, which describes a process that country program manager and their development partners can follow to move CCP from concept to reality. Together, they provide national managers with a structural framework and a process to operationalize this vital HIV prevention intervention.
WHO has many donates in African countries, where need condom urgently to prevent HIV.
