dc.description.abstractFor the last decade, discussions about who governs policy on prevention and treatment of HIV/AIDS have revolved around  the  controversial  relationship  between Western  donors and  the  power  they  have  over  their  recipient governments. While these debates were once politically germane, recent trends show a decline of donor funding, as well as an increase of financial  ownership of the epidemic within Southern Africa. Commensurate with this shifting financial influence, some well‐governed, wealthy  African  states  are  beginning  to  deviate  from  global  M&E  (monitoring  and  evaluation)  indicators.  These  policy movements, away  from global M&E indicators, also  correlate with increases in HIV  prevalence, which  signals  the  need  for  further investigation into policy efficacy.   en_ZA
