Additional Information

Agency Name: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
Description: Zambia has a 14.3% HIV prevalence among adults aged 15-49 and has had PEPFAR support for its HIV Prevention Care and Treatment Program since 2004. Part of this support has been targeted towards training and capacity building among healthcare providers, the majority of which has been in-service training. This form of training, necessitated by high staff turnover and emerging evidence which comes with changing international recommendations is costly and not sustainable. As PEPFAR support in Zambia reaches the ten year milestone, there is a need to maximize efficiencies by shifting to more sustainable and innovative training and capacity building models. In this regard, the FOA has two main components. Program Area A is the Training and Capacity building component, which will support the development of innovative, self-directed, and cost efficient training in pre-service and in-service training in the areas of 1) care, support and treatment among adult and pediatric populations, 2) TB/HIV, 3) HIV Testing and Counseling (HTC), 4) Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission (PMTCT) delivered on an integrated Maternal, Neonatal, and Child Health (MNCH platform), and 5) Health Systems Strengthening (HSS). The awardee will be expected to build the capacity of the Ministry of Health (MOH) and Ministry of Community Development, Mother and Child Health (MCDMCH) to independently develop, monitor, and evaluate the provision of these services by the end of year 5 of the cooperative agreement. The second component, Program Area B, is to support the national objective of achieving and sustaining at least 80% prevalence of Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision (VMMC), through direct service delivery (DSD) and national level technical assistance (TA). The award will support national initiatives, including the Early Infant Male Circumcision (EIMC) implementation, as well as use of surgical devices to increase efficiencies and improve outcomes for VMMC clients in supported regions.
