TREATMENT PREPAREDNESS
MATERIALS: TABLE OF CONTENTS
Reviewing the materials
Thank you for taking the time to review these materials!
This is the first step in a process of assessing treatment information needs in different regions, countries and communities.
Our primary goal is to help set up or improve a system that locates, provides and, when needed, develops materials that can be used in a variety of settings.
Materials were selected for inclusion based on quality, style, language and clarity. The materials in this packet do not cover every possible topic. Instead, the packet contains examples of multiple types of information on a single topic, so that reviewers can compare styles and types of materials.
These materials are not representative of everything that is available in the world today. They have been selected by a group of treatment educators, based in the US and Europe. When you fill out this survey, please mail or email copies of information that you use, so that we can begin to gather and disseminate materials and ideas from around the world.
The results of this survey will be presented at the International Treatment Preparedness Summit in March 2003. They will be used in future grant applications for funding for new forms of treatment information (grants that will be written with input from many ITP participants.)
We will make every effort to supply the information you request in this survey. This may take time in some cases. We will also put all of these resources on the internet at www.globaltreatmentaccess.org.
Many thanks,
The International Treatment Preparedness Materials Working Group

INSTRUCTIONS FOR REVIEWERS
1) Identify who will participate in review process.
Many of these materials will be most useful for individuals providing direct service to people with HIV and AIDS, and affected groups. It would be ideal to include a direct service provider (who may also be a person living with HIV/AIDS) in your review team.
2) Review materials & Complete survey
You will find four sub-packets of information.
- (I) antiretrovirals
- (II) opportunistic infections
- (III) Immunology and HIV life cycle basics
- (IV) mother to child transmission
Each sub-packet starts with an introduction/explanation of contents. The second sheet is the sheet reviewers should fill out and return to the Materials working group. Please fill out as many of the questions as you can and use righthand column and the reverse side for additional comments.
You will also find a separate survey (sheet V, white) assessing the need for different types of information on the global context of treatment access today. For this sheet, just check the boxes of the information you want or have already, and indicate translation needs.
