This NOFO will strengthen the Namibian HIV program to achieve sustained epidemic control. Namibia has a shortage of qualified health workers and health system managers, posing a major challenge for attainment of sustainable epidemic control.

This will be achieved by providing technical support and capacity building for scaling up targeted case finding strategies (index testing, refined provider-initiated testing, recency testing); improving linkage and same-day antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation among newly diagnosed clients; expanding services for retention, adherence to ART, and viral load (VL) suppression (community adherence groups/ART, multi-month scripting, patient tracing, optimizing antiretroviral medicine (ARV) regimens); preventing new infections through targeted outreach and medical interventions for those most at risk; expanding Tuberculosis (TB) preventive therapy (TPT) and expanding TB diagnostics and treatment; providing cervical cancer screening (CCS), treatment, and referral for women living with HIV (WLHIV); increasing indigenous partner capacity and expertise; and providing systems investments to achieve sustained epidemic control.
