Abstract

Abstract Civil Society organisations (CSOs) play a vital role in supporting HIV/AIDS prevention as they have an advantage over public providers in reaching out and maintaining relationships with key populations (KPs). We assessed the National Health Security Office (NHSO)’s contractual arrangement with CSOs for Reach-Recruit-Test-Treat-Retain (RRTTR) services, identifies gaps and recommends strategies for improvement. Document reviews, in-depth interviews with 31 key informants, and inductive thematic analysis were performed. Stakeholder consultation was convened to validate and improve recommendations. Effective contracting is characterized by (1) engagement with partners in identifying annual targets of KPs in regard to the CSO capacity, budget allocation, term and conditions and clear role of each stakeholder; (2) clear and transparent CSO selection process; (3) pre-award assessment of CSOs’ capacity; (4) effective and timely payments; (5) monitoring and evaluation of CSOs’ performances and support capacity building; and (6) a national project manager designated to manage contracting and performance assessment.
与民间社会组织签订提供艾滋病毒/艾滋病服务的公共合同:泰国消除艾滋病的一项关键战略
公民社会组织(cso)在支持艾滋病毒/艾滋病预防方面发挥着至关重要的作用,因为它们在接触和维持与关键人群(KPs)的关系方面比公共提供者具有优势。我们评估了国家卫生安全办公室(NHSO)与公民社会组织(cso)就“到达-招募-测试-治疗-保留”(RRTTR)服务的合同安排,确定了差距并建议了改进策略。进行了文献审查、对31名关键举报人的深度访谈和归纳性专题分析。召开了利益相关者磋商会,以验证和改进建议。有效合同的特点是:(1)与合作伙伴共同确定关键项目的年度目标,包括CSO能力、预算分配、条款和条件以及每个利益相关者的明确角色;(2)清晰透明的公民社会组织遴选过程;(3)对公民社会组织能力的评奖前评估;(四)付款有效、及时;(5)公民社会组织绩效监测与评价与支持能力建设;(6)指定一名全国项目经理,负责管理承包和绩效考核。
