This Cooperative Agreement award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.393 - Cancer Cause and Prevention Research) provides $1,837,497 to New York University to conduct the KUPEWA project. The project aims to (A) identify optimal implementation strategies for increasing clinician recommendation of HPV vaccination for girls and young women aged 9-24 living with HIV in Malawi, (B) refine these strategies based on implementability, and (C) identify strategies that are effective, implementable, and show sustained effects 18 months post-intervention.

The project leverages a research partnership between institutions in Malawi and the U.S., engaging the Malawi Ministry of Health. Sub-awards support the involvement of the University of California, Los Angeles, which will provide expertise in global vaccination strategies and cervical cancer prevention, and Partners In Hope, a non-profit organization in Malawi that will co-lead study activities including data collection, intervention implementation, and dissemination. The award period is from September 2024 to August 2029.
