Abstract:
This paper shows the general statistical analysis which covers the challenges of HIV/AIDS and the responses particularly in institutions of higher learning. This is followed by justification for involvement of institutions of higher learning. Nkumba University Institutional Policy on HIV/AIDS is cited as a case study of a positive response. Lastly, drawing on the experience of Nkumba University, implementation challenges are identified. They help to show us the need for targeted interventions and strategic planning as a way forward.
