Solthis was created initially to fight the HIV epidemic, and to facilitate wide access to high-quality, sustainable care. In 2003, the epidemiological data were alarming; mortality and incidence were increasing in Africa, and access to antiretroviral therapy only covered a tiny fraction of need.
The Issue
Solthis was initially created in response to the health emergency that was access to antiretroviral treatments. Despite considerable progress, the situation in West and Central Africa remains a cause for concern. In 2018, there were 5 million PLHIV in the region and 280,000 new infections, or 16% of new infections globally. Only 64% of people living with HIV know their status. The key populations who, together with their partners and clients, account for 64% of new infections and fuel the momentum of the infection have difficulty accessing care because of their stigmatisation and the criminalisation, in some countries, of sex work and homosexuality. Whilst most people (79%) who know their HIV status receive ARV treatment, access to viral load remains limited and most patients in therapeutic failure, do not receive 2nd line treatment, and many patients are lost to follow-up. Specific needs persist in this region:
access to HIV testing which is stagnating at 48%
access and use of monitoring tools (HIV viral load) for PLWHA, of which only 29% have an undetectable viral load; and less than 10% of those experiencing virological failure benefit from a switch to 2nd line treatment
management of opportunistic infections and comorbidities
stigmatisation and criminalisation of key populations, making access to care difficult for these populations who, with their partners and clients, account for 40% of new infections, fuelling the infection dynamic
poor efficacy of PMTCT programs, with 48% of HIV-infected pregnant women receiving ART, leading to a mother-to-child transmission rate of 20.2%
limited access of HIV-exposed children to early virological diagnosis (21%), and still very limited access to treatment for HIV-infected children
Our Action
At the beginning, Solthis focused on access to treatment. We are currently continuing these efforts through our projects to improve the quality of care by the mobilisation of users and civil society. Secondly, thanks in particular to the OPP-ERA project, we contributed to the development of viral load in treatment centres. We also developed access to birth room screening, early detection and antiretroviral prophylaxis for newborns, as well as antiretroviral therapy for HIV-infected infants.
Our goal over the next few years will be to continue our initiatives and develop comprehensive approaches to fight AIDS, to achieve the goal of the “three 90s” set by the international community. Our priorities will be:
to improve access to screening, in particular the self-test (ATLAS project)
to improve PMTCT care for children exposed to HIV, and treatment of infected children
to improve the quality of care by the mobilisation of users and civil society, particularly by the PACTES-2 and EMPOWER-2 projects
to improve the use of viral load results and, in particular the management of virological failure
to improve the diagnosis and management of comorbidities in PLWHA (tuberculosis, cardiovascular diseases, HPV, opportunistic infections, etc)

Solthis' Report: “Managing Risk in Fragile States: Putting Health First! Optimising the Efficiency of the Global Fund’s Grants”
“Managing Risk in Fragile States: Putting Health First!
Optimising the Efficiency of the Global Fund's Grants”
This evidence-based report is the result of a work over several months, including 4 missions (Guinea, Mali, Niger and Sierra Leone) and interviews with 140 stakeholders. Through this work, we identified bottlenecks in the implementation of the Global Fund's grants in the field, showing that the Global Fund's Risk Management Policy is not well-adapted to fragile states. The additional safeguard measures which have been put in place by the Secretariat after the investigations of the Office of the Inspector General were meant to mitigate the financial risks and to reassure donors. However, experiences in challenging operating environments clearly show that these measures are mainly focused on financial risks and have caused significant malfunctions that jeopardise both the impact and the sustainability of the programmes.
In order to make progress and to cope with the challenges specific to fragile states, we think it is now time for the Board members and the donors of the Global Fund to opt for an ambitious and innovative policy, which would put financial risk at its proper place: behind risks to public health.
The main recommendations we are addressing in the report aim to place the public health risk at the centre of the mechanism, by:
Improving the balance between the analysis and the management of the different risks.
Simplifying and clarifying the control procedures: limit the number of contractors and the levels of validation.
Defining indicators or objectives for terminating additional safeguard measures to encourage appropriation and capacity building.
Investigating the possibility of an increased presence of the Global Fund in the field, by missions of several weeks or several months.
Adapting the indicators and procedures of performance-based funding and accountability measures to fragile states.

Solthis, GIP Esther and the Point G Hospital, organized the seminar "resistance" on 10 and 11 December 2009 in Bamako. More than fifty doctors and biologists from all over the country attended this training on viral load and resistance to ARVs patients living with HIV / AIDS. Several clinical cases were presented by the Malian and discussed with national medical authorities, also attended by experts from the Pitie-Salpetriere Hospital in Paris: Professor Christine Katlama, Prof. Vincent Calvez, Dr. Anne Genevieve Marcelin and Dr. Roland Tubiana .
The Scientific Days, organized by the ULSS and CMT, in partnership with Solthis and GIP Esther, took place on 2 and 3 October 2009 in Niamey in the presence of Professor Katlama (Solthis President), Prof. Brucker (Treasurer Solthis and CEO of Esther) but also of Dr Kassi (Ivory Coast) and Professor Toure (Senegal).
More than 250 physicians, health professionals, representatives of the fight against HIV, tuberculosis in Niger attended these days. Many topics on Chess therapeutic Opportunistic Infections, PMTCT, Accidents of exposure to blood and the delegation of tasks were discussed.
The 15th International Conference on AIDS and Sexually Transmitted Infections in Africa was held from 3 to 7 December 2008 in Dakar. It was an important time to take stock of the various initiatives in the fight against HIV / AIDS implemented in Africa.
For Solthis, this conference was an opportunity to present at international level, the work done for 5 years, its action on the ground every day, in direct support of care teams and national health policies. Several papers were presented by members of Solthis, a satellite-symposium was organized, open to the public of broadcasts in partnership with RFI have been put in place ... Every day, the teams were present at booth to greet visitors and answer their questions.
An oral presentation
View lost in Segou (Mali) What drives HIV patients who receive free care to give it up and leave the circuit centers of care?
To try to answer this question, Gregory Lurton, project manager of information systems, presented the investigation into the missing=in Segou and the work on information system support.
View lost in Segou, Gregory Lurton

Solthis' teams participated to the drafting of several posters presented at the congress.
Solthis, in partnership with the Respasi (African Network of Practitioners Providing the Medical Management of People Living with HIV AIDS), held a symposium on satellite support transfronalière of phas in Africa. Indeed, more and more patients living with HIV / AIDS are required to travel within Africa. These movements can compromise the quality of their support for issues related to harmonization of the provision of care, equity of access to care, monitoring and tracking of patients and the vulnerability of these patients.
Solthis and the issuance of Priority Health Hédon Claire, broadcast daily on RFI, have partnered to offer the public a forum of ICASA. A recording booth in the center of the village association was installed to host two shows.
Priority health - Thursday, december 4
The first issuance took hold of the XV ICASA for an update on the current state of research on treatments against HIV: what the state of research in the North and the South?
Professor Jean-Francois Delfraissy, Director of the ANRS, Professor Papa Salif Sow, Co-Chair of the Scientific Program Committee of the XV ICASA and Dr Diallo Sanata, medical coordinator in Niger Solthis met to take stock of research and its implementation in countries in Africa. They answer questions from the public and Claire Hédon of ICASA.
Priority health - Friday, december 5
What about access to treatment in Africa, what is the state of care for patients living with HIV / AIDS?
In a second issue carried out as part of the XV ICASA, Claire Hédon pose his questions to Professor Christine Katlama of Pitie Salpetriere Hospital in Paris, and President of Solthis, Dr. Alain Akondé, Medical Coordinator for Solthis Mali and Pr Serge Eholié CHU Treichville in Abidjan.
