The United States for International Development Mission – USAID in Zambia, is seeking applications for the Zambia Community HIV Prevention Project (ZCHPP), a five-year activity to increase adoption of high impact HIV services and protective behaviors among-at-risk populations in targeted provinces of Zambia. Z-CHPP’s overall goal is to contribute to a reduction in new HIV infections in Zambia.
Award Information
USAID expects to award one (1) Cooperative Agreement based on this RFA. The anticipated total federal funding amount is $24,990,000 for the Zambia Community HIV prevention project. The anticipated program start date is June 2015 for a five year period. USAID anticipates the award will be a Cooperative Agreement.
The purpose of the Community HIV Prevention Project (Z-CHPP) is to increase adoption of high impact HIV services and protective behaviors among-at-risk populations in targeted provinces of Zambia. The development hypothesis underlying ZCHPP is that focusing community-based prevention interventions on high need locations and populations, and increasing uptake of high impact services such as HTC, VMMC, PMTCT and
ART together with promotion of condoms and sexual risk reduction, has the greatest potential to contribute to the overall goal of a reduction in new HIV infections in Zambia.
