According to AAI's Executive Director Rodrigo Garay, "There is widespread lack of accountability and transparency in national AIDS responses, meaning we do not have the information that we should about human and financial resources are being utilized and how well countries are meeting their agreed targets for the well-being of women and girls." Garay called for improved monitoring and evaluation of whether funding is being well spent (DeCapua, 11/23).
