The purpose of this case study is to illustrate how an integrated, comprehensive approach to delivering an elimination of mother-to-child transmission of HIV (eMTCT) programme has been operationalized in practice. It focuses particularly on how an HIV programme can be delivered through a sexual and reproductive health platform and the community.

The case study uses the experience of Rwanda to demonstrate what is possible. It is hoped that the promising practices and the lessons learnt, within this case study will provide readers with new and alternative ideas about how they might re-orientate aspects of their own operational practice related to eMTCT.

This case study also provides stakeholders with an advocacy tool and an educational resource that serve to provide further support for the implementation of The Global Plan towards the elimination of new HIV infections among children by 2015 and keeping their mothers alive.
