“…International projects on HIV have greatly contributed in facilitating China's national AIDS response 8 . Over 20 years, China has participated in 267 collaborative international projects to stop the HIV/AIDS epidemic, receiving ∼USD$526 million from over 40 international organizations.…”

“…These projects are now fully integrated into the overall national AIDS responses. Beyond providing critical financial support, these international projects created the opportunity to introduce the best practices in use globally into China, accelerating the formulation of AIDS policies, strengthening providers’ capacity, improving the development of grass-roots social organizations and establishing a platform for communication and experience sharing with the international community 8 , 9 . The international contributions decreased over time, as the importance of sustainable government support became apparent, so that today international financial support reflects only one-third of the total monetary resources for the China's AIDS program.…”

ObjectiveWe assessed HIV/AIDS expenditures in Dehong Prefecture, Yunnan Province, one of the highest prevalence regions in China, and describe funding sources and spending for different categories of HIV-related interventions and at-risk populations.Methods2010 HIV/AIDS expenditures in Dehong Prefecture were evaluated based on UNAIDS’ National AIDS Spending Assessment methodology.ResultsNearly 93% of total expenditures for HIV/AIDS was contributed by public sources. Of total expenditures, 52.7% was allocated to treatment and care, 24.5% to program management and administration and 19.8% to prevention. Spending on treatment and care was primarily allocated to the treatment of opportunistic infections. Most (40.4%) prevention spending was concentrated on most-at-risk populations, injection drug users (IDUs), sex workers, and men who have sex with men (MSM), with 5.5% allocated to voluntary counseling and testing. Prevention funding allocated for MSM, partners of people living with HIV and prisoners and other confined populations was low compared to the disproportionate burden of HIV/AIDS in these populations. Overall, people living with HIV accounted for 57.57% of total expenditures, while most-at-risk populations accounted for only 7.99%.ConclusionsOur study demonstrated the applicability of NASA for tracking and assessing HIV expenditure in the context of China, it proved to be a useful tool in understanding national HIV/AIDS response from financial aspect, and to assess the extent to which HIV expenditure matches epidemic patterns. Limited funding for primary prevention and prevention for MSM, prisoners and partners of people living with HIV, signal that resource allocation to these key areas must be strengthened. Comprehensive analyses of regional and national funding strategies are needed to inform more equitable, effective and cost-effective HIV/AIDS resource allocation.

“…Such evaluation does call into question the sustainability of such collaborations and the eventual effectiveness of domestic NGOs when partnerships or projects end. International partnerships have transferred knowledge and skills in the treatment and management of HIV/AIDS to China, they are now active in delivering HIV/AIDS programs to other nations (Sun et al ). HIV/AIDS NGOs are challenged and restricted by the institutional environment, but if we shift our attention to the strategies in which NGOs are adopting, we see that the transformation potential of Chinese NGOs and therefore cannot be framed within the language of political change.…”

This article reviews the literature on Chinese non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and civil society and argues that to understand the transformative potential of Chinese NGOs we need to consider beyond macro-level political change. By looking at the tactics and strategies of engagement between NGOs and the state, it becomes clear that Chinese NGOs are capable of affecting communities and change at the local level. Furthermore, to fully understand the capacity of Chinese NGOs, this article argues that we cannot insist on a state-society separation as we would in other jurisdictions because it would not lead to fruitful analysis. The state of the field is assessed through an interdisciplinary lens, characterised by four major themes: the linkage between the rise of NGOs and the expansion of civil society; the rise of NGOs as a reflection of state-society relations; NGO sectoral development; and, to a lesser extent, the development of theory and frameworks.
