About this opportunity
This notice of funding opportunity from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention seeks applicants to implement evidence-based HIV prevention interventions for key and priority populations in Rwanda. Eligible applicants include domestic public and private entities aligned with Rwanda's national HIV strategy goal of reducing new infections by 15% by 2027. Applicants must focus on outreach, education, testing, and treatment services for at-risk groups. Performance and outcome data collection is required along with adherence to evaluative questions. Applications are due February 5, 2024.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will award up to $1.9 million per year over five years of funding through this cooperative agreement. Work will be performed in Rwanda supporting outreach, biomedical interventions, health systems strengthening, data reporting, and partnerships with community and faith-based organizations to ensure equitable access to comprehensive HIV prevention, diagnosis, and treatment for key populations.
Synopsis
The Award Ceiling for Year 1 is 0 (none). CDC anticipates an Approximate Total Fiscal Year Funding amount of $1,900,000 for Year 1, subject to the availability of funds.To achieve the Rwandan strategic plan's 2027 goal of reducing new HIV infections by 15%, implementation of evidence-based HIV prevention activities among key populations (KP) targeted in Rwanda (e.g., female and male sex workers, men who have sex with men (MSM), transgender people (TG), and other emerging KP) is essential. This NOFO builds on past activities targeting KP and priority populations (PP) by focusing on PP closely related to KP (e.g., sexual partners of female and male sex workers, social networks of KPs, and adolescent girls and young women (AGYW)).The NOFO will focus on outreach services to KP/PP, provision of community-based peer education, and linkage to a comprehensive package of biomedical HIV prevention services (e.g., HIV testing services (HTS), pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), condoms and voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC)), linkage to HIV care with same-day initiation, follow-up of KP who are HIV positive, and viral load suppression (VLS) as indicated in Rwanda's HIV Guidelines. The NOFO is expected to support the provision of tailored KP-competent services through a combination of service delivery models. The NOFO also aims to reduce stigma and discrimination and to address gender-based violence (GBV) issues faced by KP/ PP. Key monitoring and evaluation (M & E) components will include routine program monitoring to track the progress on achieving the project period outcomes.
