• Frank Amort, University of Applied Sciences, FH Joanneum, Austria (Advisory Group (AG) member)

• Michael Wright, Catholic University for Applied Sciences, Germany (collaborating partner and AG member)

Scientific Reference Panel (SRP) - Members


• WP3 (evaluation) will develop data collection instruments (e.g. for evaluating the practical application of tools)

• WP7 will develop specific indicators/ evaluation questions to be included into evaluation instruments– in order to derive quality principles and criteria from data

collection

‘What do we need to know from participating projects and programs (before and after application) in order to develop quality principles and criteria?’

Agreement on WP7-specific indicators for data collection (6/2014)


• Focus group discussions will be conducted by WP3 in collaboration with WP7 (during the regional training workshops Part II)

• WP7 will include relevant indicators/ questions in the topic guide for the focus groups

– in order to analyse which factors the trainers experienced (when applying the tools) as successful in order to improve quality of prevention

Focus groups with trainers (10/2014 and 01-02/2015)


• The literature review is being conducted by the Institute of Health- and Tourism Management (Austrian University of Applied Sciences, FH Joanneum)– with the aim to identify and synthesize literature on approaches,

applications, guidelines and tools– which intentionally influence quality HIV prevention work and

processes in a positive direction

Literature review (6/2014)


• The Charter will be based on the analysis of the results of the practical applications of the five QA/QI tool

• It will include a short introduction into the topic and the agreed quality principles and criteria for HIV prevention

Charter for Quality in HIV Prevention (11/2015 and 2/2016)


• WP2 (Dissemination): To disseminate the Charter• WP3 (Evaluation): To plan the WP7 specific data collection • WP5 (Capacity building): To conduct focus groups at the four regional WP5 training workshops Part II• WP6 (Practical application): To apply the evaluation instruments to participating projects/programs • WP8 (Policy development): The Charter will be the technical basis for the policy kit

Cooperation with other WPs
