Namibia, one the most sparsely populated nations in Africa, has one of the highest HIV prevalence rates in the world: 12.1 percent. Abt Associates is leading efforts to develop and improve high-impact and innovative HIV care models, ultimately improving HIV outcomes in Namibia. We also are partnering with the Namibian government and the private sector to financially sustain its multi-sectoral HIV and AIDS response.
