    Strategic plan for Prosa
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2019-09-10) Rudolph, Paula; Sánchez Paredes, Sandro Alberto
    This paper is based on the development of a strategic plan for the Program to Support the Self-Help of people living with HIV Positive conditions (PROSA) from 2015 to 2022. The plan was developed using the strategic process proposed by Dr. Fernando D’Alessio. Through the use of the plan, a vision was developed with the purpose of changing PROSA from a struggling non-governmental organization (NGO) to one that is driven, financially sustainable and internationally competitive. In the past, PROSA has been successful in influencing legislations that promoted the well-being of the HIV/AIDS infected section of the Peruvian population. Unfortunately, the company has not been as influential in recent years and furthermore, it was realized that a significant proportion of those currently infected with HIV/AIDS in Peru have little, irregular or, in some cases, no access to antiretroviral treatments, as well there still exist high levels of stigma and discrimination, among other problems. The organization has not been able to tackle these issues as a result of inadequate funding and staffing inefficiencies, as well as other sources of internal ineffectiveness. As a result, the present strategic plan has developed six long-term objectives that propose to improve financial sustainability, enhance the workforce, increase the organization’s projects and recognition, ensure the availability of treatments for HIV/AIDS and related diseases, increase public knowledge and awareness of sexual health, and significantly reduce discrimination against those infected with HIV/AIDS. These long-term objectives will be reached by implementing six key strategies proposed for the organization. It is also proposed that the implementation of the Balanced Scorecard will monitor the attainment and measure the results of the short-term objectives, who will help reach the organization’s long-term objectives and vision. The realization of all of the proposed objectives and strategies will be a joint effort between all members of the organization and will ultimately benefit the society.
