Additional Information on Eligibility: Eligible applicants that can apply for this funding opportunity appear below: Only the National Aids Council (NAC) of Zimbabwe may submit applications. No other applications are solicited. The National Aids Council (NAC) is an organization enacted through an Act of the Zimbabwean Parliament in 1999 to coordinate and facilitate the national multi-sectoral response to HIV and AIDS, and is uniquely qualified to be the recipient organization for the following reasons: 1. NAC is Zimbabwes sole national coordinating authority for HIV and AIDS, as mandated from legislation. 2. NAC has international recognition, by donors and country nationals, as the sole coordinating and reporting authority under the "Three Ones" Principles of the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS. 3. NACs mandate includes sole authority over national monitoring and evaluation of HIV and AIDS program outcomes in Zimbabwe. As such, NAC tracks the indicators from the Declaration of Commitment from the United Nations General Assembly Special Session on HIV/AIDS in 2001 and collects information from the relevant groups. 4. Because of its multi-sectoral mandate, NAC is the only authority able to address issues across all sectors of HIV/AIDS prevention, care and treatment (e.g. for coordination of HBC between the Zimbabwean Ministry of Health and Child Welfare, community-based care, NGOs, media and education.)
