Proposed activities include: 1) supporting coordination of evidence-based prevention interventions; 2) strengthening the capacity of CNLS to coordinate and advocate for policy development and resource mobilization; 3) supporting data analysis, monitoring and evaluation, and operational research; 4) ensuring use of HIV/AIDS program data for evidence-based decision making; and 5) providing health information, education, and communication through the national HIV/AIDS hotline, virtual library, documentation center and radio programs. These activities are aligned with the 2009-2012 Rwanda National Strategic Plan (NSP) on HIV/AIDS, which aims to reduce HIV incidence by half by 2012, as well as with the vision of PEPFAR II to gradually transition activities to host country entities.
