This is the history of a relatively young organization-UNAIDS, launched in 1996 to strengthen the way in which the United Nations (UN) was responding to AIDS, one of the worst pandemics the world has ever known.

As a resource for the delegates at this Africa Development Forum 2000 devoted to the topic of HIV/AIDS, UNAIDS is pleased to provide the following country profiles. Together, the profiles help to paint a picture of the current state of the HIV epidemic in Africa, its impact on the social and economic fabric, and the response thus far of the African nations to the unprecedented crisis caused by HIV/AIDS. For the selected indicators used, they are as complete a compilation as possible, given the available data from African countries and from UNAIDS and WHO sources. (...) The country profiles are divided into four sections: The epidemiological situation of HIV/AIDS; the economic impact of HIV/AIDS; the management and implementation of the national response to HIV/AIDS; a short list of basic socioeconomic indicators, followed by a list of references.
