How can economic evaluation and cost-effectiveness studies
help managers and policymakers plan HIV/AIDS programs?, Because of tight budgets, it's valuable to know how much different
activities and services cost.
* Information about cost-effectiveness can help decision makers
choose between different types of programs.
* Information on the cost of an additional service or person helps
program managers plan for scaling-up their programs.

Join Horizons and its partners to learn about economic evaluation studies we've conducted
around the world. Funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development, the Horizons
Program conducts global operations research to improve HIV/AIDS prevention, care, and
support programs.
