214. In 2014, PLHIVs benefitted the most from HIV-related spending with 46.64% of total expenditures, followed by specific population groups with 13.34%, the general population with 26.57% and other key population groups with 8.49%. Men and women in uniform, out-of-school youth and many other key populations identified in the 2014-2017 National Accelerated AIDS Response Plan (PARNS) have not received any funding for activities relating to them. This situation is worrying and challenges the SEN/CNLS regarding its coordination role. It is imperative to establish systematic coordination meetings at the national and regional levels so as to ensure that interventions are aligned with the PARNS and that all key populations are taken into account in national policies. 215. Overall spending relating to HIV/AIDS and STIs increased from CFAF 8,816,326,850 in 2013 to CFAF 10,669,225,610 in 2014, i.e. an increase of 21%. An additional financing agreement with the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria under the new funding model is currently being implemented.  Malaria control and mortality rates  216.

Prevalence in the general population According to the 2010-2011 ENIPT, the prevalence of malaria in the general population is 29.8%.
