Although the fight against the Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS)
has recently enjoyed high priority, a major obstacle to a successful effort in fighting the
pandemic remains a lack of an integrated and coordinated information structure to
which every stakeholder has access [1]. Government and NGOs, research institutions
and private companies collect data regarding the AIDS pandemic, its prevalence,
behavioral risk factors, Anti Retro Viral (ARV) drug availability and distribution,
development and testing. This information however, remains fragmented and so
planning, decision and policy making the stakeholders is done with only part of the
information available at any one time. The effectiveness and relevancy of the planning
and decision making process is therefore made irrelevant. Coordinated information
gathering and updating can be one of the most effective tools in fighting the
pandemic. Systems that can make this possible on a national level, across all the
various domains dealing with AIDS are therefore required.
