The Division of Labour was adapted by the UN Theme Group on HIV/AIDS in the Philippines in 2006, and was updated in May 2010 for UNAIDS Cosponsors and the Secretariat to be more responsive to the current country context on HIV.
The Division of Labour is unique in two important respects. First, it is underpinned by a common analysis of implementation bottlenecks and of the comparative advantages of each of the UNAIDS organizations. This enables UNAIDS to deliver, for the first time, a unitary, unified and consolidated UNAIDS-sourced technical support plan. Second, a novel approach has been developed to ensure accountability for the sourcing and management of technical support which involves the identification of Lead Organizations for each technical support area.
The Lead Organization—either a Cosponsor or the Secretariat—serves as a single entry point for government and other relevant country-level stakeholders requiring support within a particular UNAIDS technical support area. The Lead Organization is primarily responsible for coordinating the provision and/or facilitation of this technical support, as identified in the Technical Support Division of Labour matrix below. The Main Partners in the matrix are the other members of the UNAIDS family providing technical support within the area.
