In 2006, the Institute for fighting HIV/AIDS in Angola (INLS) developed their second National Strategic Plan (NSP) for the 2006-2010 period. This plan has been used since 2006 to implement the Angolan HIV/AIDS strategy in the country and was the basis for two Global Fund proposals in 2008 and 2009. From April until July 2010, the INLS developed a new strategic plan. Two costing experts financed by PEPFAR helped the INLS make a budget for the strategic plan and later for the GFATM Round 10 proposal. In the coming year, HPP TO3 will give a follow-up to this costing exercise, in particular training staff of the INLS to enable them to do these exercises in the future themselves. HPP TO3 will also look at other facets of institutional functioning that can be improved in close collaboration with the INLS. In COP 11 the mission wants to continue providing institutional capacity building to the INLS.
