Infrastructure Benchmarks for the design, implementation and evaluation of HIV/AIDS, STI and hepatitis C health promotion programs

Summary

The Infrastructure Benchmarks for the design, implementation and evaluation of HIV/AIDS, STI and hepatitis C health promotion programs describe the range of elements essential for the delivery of effective health promotion programs. The Infrastructure Benchmarks have been developed by the Inter-Governmental Committee on AIDS, Hepatitis and Related Diseases (IGCAHRD) for use by advisory bodies, policy-makers and program managers. The Infrastructure Benchmarks have been endorsed by the Communicable Diseases Network of Australia (CDNA).

The Infrastructure Benchmarks describe five key areas, including:

* leadership and management
* community participation and partnerships
* research, information management, planning and evaluation
* learning and workforce development
* health promotion practice.

The Infrastructure Benchmarks have been developed to provide state and territory health authorities with an assessment tool for ensuring that they have in place the range of elements and activities that provide the basis for effective health promotion programs.
