Applicants Eligible for this Grant: Others (see text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" for clarification)
Additional Information on Eligibility: Eligible applicants for this funding opportunity announcement are local indigenous public non-profit organizations, local indigenous private non-profit organizations, local indigenous universities, local indigenous colleges, local indigenous research institutions, local indigenous hospitals, local indigenous community-based organizations, and local indigenous faith based organizations fully registered in Tanzania.
Grant Description: The purpose of this program is to continue the provision of HIV/AIDS Prevention, Care & Support and Treatment Services that have been initiated under the PEPFAR-funded HHS/CDC and HHS/HRSA HIV clinical services and antiretroviral treatment program. Also, to provide technical capacity development to Tanzanian entities, including Regional and Local Health teams, that will be responsible for implementing HIV care and treatment activities. Building, strengthening and sustaining institutional capacity of indigenous Tanzanian organizations is a key strategy for achieving the prevention, care and treatment goals of the Emergency Plan, as well as ensuring long-term sustainability of public health programs. Specifically, this announcement aims to establish a cadre of local/indigenous organizations as implementers of HIV care and treatment programs previously maintained and operated by international partner organizations funded by the United States government through HHS treatment mechanisms. This transition needs to occur while simultaneously sustaining and continuing the scale up of care and treatment services for people living with HIV (PLWH) without life-threatening disruptions of services. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) focuses on provision of HIV services and strengthening the capacity of local Tanzanian organizations which may include, but are not limited to any of the following entities: regional and district government, local universities and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in Tanzania.Funds for this announcement are provided through PEPFAR, which is an interagency initiative. Efficiencies in PEPFAR implementation have been developed through coordination of implementing agencies, including reducing parallel funding to specific implementing partners by different agencies to do identical activities in the same population. The intent of this announcement is to maintain those efficiencies, and successful proposals will reflect an understanding of this coordination in country through their technical and programmatic approach.
