Master's Thesis from the year 2016 in the subject Health - Miscellaneous, grade: Merit, London School of Economics (International Development), course: MSc Development Studies, language: English, abstract: This paper examines how governments and health organizations can successfully transit from vertical programming into a broad-based and inclusive community based Primary Health Care that responds to the needs of the local community. Using HIV/AIDS in Uganda as a case study, this paper finds that though these programs are important in combating some of the biggest pandemics affecting the largest percentage of most populations in the developing world, enhancing the efficacy of vertical programs requires its integration into the more inclusive Primary Health Care system.
