Grant Description

The overall goal of the USG’s support to Tanzania is to reduce HIV incidence by preventing HIV transmission between at-risk populations, Most-at-Risk Populations (MARPs) and their sexual partners. To support this goal, the HIV Prevention with At-Risk Populations project has the following two program objectives: 1. Strengthen the protective behaviors of at-risk populations, MARPs and their sexual partners to prevent HIV transmission 2. Strengthen the environment at national and lower levels to enable at-risk populations’ and MARPs’ access to high quality medical and non-medical support and services. The HIV Prevention with At-Risk Populations project will work closely with the GOT, Tanzanian entities, and the civil society to design, execute, and coordinate highly innovative, state-of-the-art, and results-driven HIV prevention initiatives that target MARPs and at-risk populations. The project’s main focus will be on the transactional sex – commercial sex continuum.
