PIP: Magu is a rural district of Tanzania in which approximately 5% of adults are infected with HIV. Sexually transmitted diseases are common in this district which borders Lake Victoria and is crossed by a major truck route. In 1995, the Tanzania Netherlands Support Project on AIDS (TANESA) organized a 3-day workshop for members of the district primary health care (PHC) committee to review the district HIV/AIDS program. Committee members included staff from health, community development, education, water and fisheries sectors, and the district planning office. Local nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) and churches were also invited. Workshop participants created a multisectoral "AIDS-Action" team comprised of the district planning officer, district AIDS control coordinator, and representatives of the planning, health, development, culture, and education sectors and NGOs. The team will represent relevant sectors and NGOs, plan and coordinate all AIDS-related activities at the district level, mobilize resources for HIV/AIDS prevention activities at the district level, and meet quarterly and report to the district PHC committee. The team's main contact with the local community is through the social services committee. Efforts to support district councilors and problems encountered by the team are discussed.
