AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: Eligible applicants that can apply for this NOFO are:World Health Organization
Description: The international community is committed to ending the AIDS epidemic by 2030 and achieving the following interim targets: 90 percent of people living with HIV (PLHIV) know their status, 90 percent of those with HIV are on treatment, and 90 percent of those on treatment are virally suppressed by 2020. As PEPFAR resources are limited, effective partnerships continue to be critical in ultimately achieving epidemic control. CDC has partnered with the WHO since the inception of PEPFAR, and is able to draw on the WHO&#8217;s comparative advantage to issue international health guidelines and standards. This NOFO will strengthen public health capacity and guidelines to fast track HIV programs down to the district level in PEPFAR supported countries to achieve the 90-90-90 targets and move towards ending the AIDS epidemic by 2030. Key areas of collaboration as guided by the Joint Strategic Framework on the WHO and PEPFAR cooperation on HIV/AIDS include: prevention, care and treatment scale up, integrated service delivery, strengthening health systems, strategic information, and country support. Amendment II:This amendment is for informational purposes only. CDC is not accepting new applications for award. The purpose of this amendment is to include language regarding HIV epidemic control under d. Other National Public Health Priorities and Strategies.
