Zambia has the seventh highest rate of HIV infection in the world (UNAIDS, 2008), and the AIDS epidemic remains among the most serious threats to development in spite of having a national response in place for more than 25 years. HIV and AIDS directly threaten the human capital base through widespread illness and death, and causes public, private and household capital to be diverted from investment to treatment, care and support. During the past few years Zambia has been able to scale-up a number of interventions as a result of significant investments in the AIDS sector, e.g. approximately US$257,000,000 invested annually. This has resulted in reduction in HIV prevalence, and AIDS becoming a chronic illness rather than an automatic death sentence.
