Quality assurance and quality improvement in national HIV prevention policies in Europe

Improving the quality of HIV prevention activities to become more effective is a key objective of HIV policies. Quality Assurance/Quality Improvement (QA/QI) are management tools that systematically assess and improve the factors that determine the success of interventions. Quality Action, an EU co-funded project across 25 European countries, has promoted the use of 5 tools in HIV prevention using a combination of tool development, training workshops, supported applications, evidence review and policy advocacy.
