HIV/AIDS & Nutrition

2009 Dan Evans Guinea

Providing nutritional care and support for people living with HIV/AIDS is an important part of caring at all stages of the disease. HIV infection is characterized by progressive destruction of the immune system, leading to recurrent opportunistic infections and malignancies. Malnutrition is one of the major complications of HIV infection and a significant factor in advanced disease. Malnutrition and HIV negatively affect each other. HIV infection may result in poor nutrition as a result of insufficient dietary intake, malabsorption, and altered metabolism.

The following materials were developed to train CRS staff and partners on key components of nutrition and HIV programming. It is not expected that this one-week course will train professional nutritionists. Instead, this is an intensive training on main points that programmers should look for and be aware of within on-going HIV programs that have a nutrition component. By the end of the training, staff should understand what the key components are, how they are incorporated in programming, and how they are monitored over time.

El material a continuación se desarrolló para capacitar al personal y a los socios de CRS en componentes clave de la programación de nutrición y VIH. No se espera que este curso de una semana capacite nutricionistas profesionales. Pero sí es una capacitación intensiva de los temas principales sobre los cuales los que elaboran los programas deben investigar e informarse dentro de los programas continuos de VIH que tengan componentes nutricionales.

These briefing notes have been developed through a highly participatory process, guided by an international advisory board. During their development in English, French and Portuguese, they have been reviewed by more than 80 people across Africa. These people have read and commented on the papers, and have added examples and case studies from their own countries. One part of the review took place at a meeting in Uganda, attended by twenty people from Uganda, Malawi, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Kenya, Burkina Faso, Senegal, Mali, Mozambique and Angola.
