Approaches to implement the activities include training and retaining technical staff, direct service delivery through testing services, support for procurement of laboratory commodities and equipment, supply management, training staff for effective coordination and management of HIV program, and strengthening the health system. The assistance provided will enhance Lesotho to sustain high levels of treatment, retention in care and VL suppression among PLHIV. In the long term, this NOFO contributes to achieving the 95-95-95 targets and maintaining epidemic control in Lesotho. All activities implemented under this award will follow national policies, strategic plans, guidelines, and priorities of PEPFAR-supported programs. |
