that are tools for community stakeholders. "To optimize the benefits of male circumcision for HIV prevention, advocates, activists, community, and grassroots organizations need to be involved every step of the way," says Mitchell Warren, Executive Director of AVAC. "This is an exciting and much-needed resource for sharing information, ideas and approaches to an emerging strategy."

World Health Organization (WHO)

WHO is the coordinating authority for health within the United Nations (UN) system. It is responsible for providing leadership on global health matters, shaping the health research agenda, setting norms and standards, articulating evidence-based policy options, providing technical support to countries, and monitoring and assessing health trends. WHO is the lead organization within the UN system for supporting the scaling up of male circumcision service provision. WHO is working with UNAIDS, UNFPA and UNICEF to assist countries to make evidence-based policy and programme decisions to improve the availability, accessibility and safety of male circumcision and reproductive health services as an integral component of comprehensive HIV prevention strategies. WHO and UN partners use their globally accepted, complementary, normative and convening roles to lead policy setting, develop programme guidance and coordinate research to guide countries in making decisions on implementing and scaling up safe male circumcision services for HIV prevention based on available and emerging evidence. Key WHO materials on male circumcision are available here on the Clearinghouse on Male Circumcision for HIV Prevention site.
