The National AIDS Council sees the thrust of the 2006 to 2010 National HIV and AIDS Strategic Framework (NASF) as focusing on service delivery and saving lives and consequently the community initiatives that drive that focus. The NASF has identified the following six (6) priority themes for intervention:

1. Intensifying prevention of HIV
2. Expanding treatment, care and support for people living with or affected by HIV and AIDS;
3. Mitigating the socio-economic impact of HIV and AIDS
4. Strengthening the decentralized response by mainstreaming HIV and AIDS
5. Improving the capacity for monitoring by all partners; and
6. Integrating advocacy and coordination of the multi-sectoral response

In order to fulfill the interventions outlined above, the Secretariat is supported by several theme groups whose principal role is to monitor the implementation of the 2006 -2010 National HIV/AIDS Strategic Framework.
