الأخ أحمد امين،
سلامات،
العام الماضى كتب بيتر موستشينسكى فى المجلة الطبية البريطانية حول انعدام الارادة السياسية لحكومة السودان لدعم التوعية و التعليم فى مجال الصحة العامة. و صرح توماس اكفال من مكتب اليونسيف فى الخرطوم: كم من المواطنين يجب ان يموتوا او يصابوا بالمرض قبل أن تختفى الحساسية فى التعامل مع المعلومات حوله؟
وفى اغسطس الماضى انتقدت منظمة مراقبة حقوق الانسان الحكومة الحالية لممارستها الرقابية التى تقيد من امكانية وضع برامج توعية فاعلة. المهم مؤخرا حاولت الحكومة تغيير خطابها (و ليس بالضرورة ممارساتها) حول هذا الأمر. هناك برنامج قومى للأيدز
Sudan National AIDS Control Programme
وشبكة للايدز ايضاً. و من خلال البرنامج القومى للأيدز تم وضع خطة عمل لعام 2003/2004 ووضعت لها ميزانية و تم تقديمها لبرنامج الأمم المتحدة للأيدز، و تركز هذه الخطة على سبع ولايات.
نسب الاصابة بنهاية العام 2001 فى السودان (حسب تقديرات الأمم المتحدة - و هى تقديرات محافظة):
Total (adults and children): 450,000
Adults: 410,000
Women: 230,000
ِChildren: 30,000
deaths: 23,000
اماكن تمركز الاصابات: فى الخرطوم، و فى المناطق المتأثرة بالحرب فى الجنوب و فى المناطق المتأثرة بتجمعات اللاجئين/ات فى شرق السودان.
توجد أدناه المزيد من المعلومات، ولك التحية

Sudan's media laws frustrate drives on AIDS and genital mutilation
Peter Moszynski, London
A growing clampdown on the press is affecting public health campaigns in Sudan, just as a breakdown in peace talks dashed hopes of ending one of the world's most intractable civil wars.
On 11 September the campaigning group Human Rights Watch wrote to President Omar al Bashir, condemning the recent crackdown. The group said, "In the past week, following the government's withdrawal from peace talks in Nairobi with rebel forces, the governmental National Press Council has confiscated newspapers for publishing allegedly subversive articles and security forces have detained, harassed, and interrogated newspaper editors and journalists."
"Subversion" includes criticism of the breakdown of the peace talks "threatening the unity of the state" and discussing female circumcision.
Sudan's AIDS campaigners complain of a lack of political commitment to public health education, as editors shy away from publishing stories that fall foul of the country's rigid obscenity laws, which also hamper the campaign against female genital mutilation.
"We are still waiting for the media to play its vital role in the AIDS control programme," said Dr Ibrahim Mohamed Abdallah of the Sudan National AIDS Control Programme. Despite widespread popular participation in a national advocacy week, the campaign received virtually no press coverage.
"The fact that HIV/AIDS is primarily spread through sexual intercourse makes it a sensitive issue. This is a difficulty that people all around the world have had to confront. Here in Sudan we must ask how many people have to die and how many people have to get infected before we overcome this sensitivity," said Unicef representative Thomas Ekvall at a football tournament launching the campaign.
Twenty years of civil war and the government's policies have provided fertile ground for a huge increase in HIV infection. Aid agencies claim that the civil war has created "the greatest humanitarian emergency on earth."
The crackdown is also hampering the drive against female genital mutilation.
Human Rights Watch protested about this in its letter to the president. "On August 24, the official National Press Council suspended for one day the publication of another Khartoum newspaper, Al Ayam, after it published a piece on female genital mutilation reportedly still widely practised in Sudan although illegal. It is not possible to understand why this issue of Al Ayam should be suspended in view of the government's official position against female genital mutilation," it said.
North Sudan has one of the world's highest incidences of female circumcision. A 1990 demographic and health survey found that 89% of married women had undergone some form of genital mutilation.
Campaigners accuse the government of encouraging the practice while gagging its critics. The National Press Council deemed the paper's coverage "a slur on public decency." Omdurman Islamic University recently established a centre for training traditional birth attendants to perform the procedure.
On 22 May a workshop organised by the Ministry of Religious Affairs and Endowment was held at the university's centre for female students. The workshop recommended the legalisation of female circumcision, raising awareness of its "importance," and supporting the efforts of the female student centre to establish centres all over the country.
From UNAIDS
Sudan
Recently the country decided to break the silence over HIV/AIDS. A strong political commitment in support of the response was not evident until lately. General denial was the trend mainly because Sudan was considered to be a conservative, Muslim country. However, the epidemic has continued to grow since 1986 and the number of estimated cases are 500,000. Situation analysis identified the high risk groups to be: Tea-sellers, informal ####### workers, truck drivers, prisoners, refugees/IDPs and the uniformed services. Heterosexual intercourse transmission accounts to 94%. The prevalence of the epidemic is evidently higher in the capital as well as the southern region because of the on-going civil war, eastern region to the border of Eriteria and Ethiopia due to the influx of refugees from both countries (prevalence among refugees is 4.6%) as well as the major port areas where the trucking routes are. VCT services are almost non-existent and labs are poorly equipped. A plan of action for the first year of the NSP has been developed and includes priority intervention areas that are considered to be feasible and essential to start with before implementing other interventions. Noting the fact that interventions at community level are extremely important, where large segments of the local community have never heard of AIDS decentralization of implementation is one challenge to overcome
UNAIDS in Sudan
To initiate the implementation of concrete actions of the NSP, the government, with the support of UNAIDS, developed a costed one-year plan of action (POA) 2003-2004 focusing on seven states of Sudan. The work plan also focuses on selected priority areas of work and activities that are feasible, that help initiate other and that meet important gaps. The POA provides an integrated work plan of action on HIV/AIDS, grouping together and coordinating HIV/AIDS activities being supported by national and international partners.
Country Theme Group on HIV/AIDS carries out the mandate of UNAIDS in Sudan. Members of the Country Theme Group include UN Agencies, national partners as well as international and national NGO representatives. The Sudan AIDS Network represents the national NGOs working on HIV/AIDS, in the CTG. Thematic Technical Working Groups are established when dealing with various issues.
The UN Agencies are providing considerable technical and financial support to HIV/AIDS related activities and supporting the NSP priorities in Sudan. UNFPA, UNICEF and WHO are supporting, among others, blood safety and infection control, surveillance and provision of testing kits, integration of HIV/AIDS into the school curricula, training of workers in health and social sectors, training in STIs and social mobilization. Furthermore, other agencies, such as UNDP, UNHCR, WFP and UNIDO, have begun mobilizing support by integrating HIV/AIDS into their various programmatic areas of work, such as building partnership and NGOs working on HIV/AIDS, refugees, support to PLWHA.
In an effort to coordinate their contribution to the national response, the CTG in collaboration with the Sudanese National AIDS Programme, will channel support of CTG members and other partners to HIV/AIDS activities within the POA.
UNAIDS support to the POA will be provided through the Programme Acceleration Fund. This comprises a range of activities aiming to catalyze the response across sectors and mobilizing different partners. In support of national response and seeking active involvement of different sectors, PAF supports revitalizing the Sudan National Council on HIV/AIDS as well as mobilizing resources. Other activities include building partnership on HIV/AIDS with non-traditional partners such as religious leaders and the business community. Furthermore, it romotes the involvement of PLWHA in the national response and intends to commence HIV/AIDS prevention activities addressed to vulnerable groups, i.e. prisoners.
