Abstract:
This thesis aim to do the stakeholder analysis by study the goals, needs and requirements, the level of satisfaction and the expectations in the future collaborations that the stakeholders wish to share with the Global AIDS Program. The study used qualitative approach through self-administered questionnaire and in-depth interview of all fourteen stakeholders of the Global AIDS Program, under Thailand MOPH-U.S. CDC Collaborations. The results of the self-administered questionnaire and in-depth interview of the stakeholders in both management level and operational level share the same satisfactory result toward the collaboration with the Thailand MOPH-U.S. CDC Collaboration. The issues that rose are the planning (policy, direction, share the lesson learned, future expansion, and cost- effectiveness analysis), people (concerns in both quantity and quality), database/information system, and funding. It is to be advised that after the end of the new cooperative agreement phase 3 (year 2016), this kind of study should be conducted right after the end of the Cooperative Agreement so that staffs are still able to contact, their memories are able to be recalled and expressed their experiences. The in-depth interview is a powerful tool to gain lots of ideas especially some topics that people might avoid to answer in the self-administered questionnaire or where the rating was conflicts, however, some sensitive questions had to be aware and find the alternative ways to answer. If there are more time and resources available, the study should also covered the 360 degrees' view point from non-governmental organizations (NGOs), the HIV/AIDS patients and the donors to get all the perspective from related parties.
