Grant Description

The purpose of this program is to build and strengthen an indigenous, sustainable response to the HIV epidemic in Ethiopia through the support of innovative, culturally appropriate, high-quality HIV/AIDS prevention, care and support, and treatment programs at the national, regional, health network, and facility levels. The program will build the administrative and technical capacity of the local university partner to plan and implement its own HIV/AIDS prevention, care and support, and treatment program activities within the institution. Furthermore, it will provide technical support to the health facilities and health networks in its catchment area, the respective Regional Health Bureau (RHB), and the Federal Ministry of Health (FMOH) for the effective implementation of the overall HIV/AIDS program. This technical support will improve the quality of prevention, care and support, and treatment services delivered to People Living with HIV in Ethiopia, and the overall function of the health network system in the country.
