Build capacity of local GOs, NGOs and community based organizations to successfully compete for funds, as prime partners from donor agencies including the USG for the purposes of implementing adherence support and community care program activities. 6. Partners receiving HHS/CDC funding must place a clear emphasis on developing local indigenous capacity to deliver HIV/AIDS related services to the Ethiopian population and must also coordinate with activities supported by Ethiopian, international or USG agencies to avoid duplication. 7.
