Funding for Sexual Prevention: Abstinence/Be Faithful (HVAB): $0

The goal of the project is to reduce the number of new HIV infection in Ethiopia. This shall happen by reducing risks and vulnerability to HIV infection, through a process lead by GOE and evidence. The program shall support the efforts of GOE in meeting the SPM II targets of intensifying HIV prevention in Ethiopia. It delivers major part of the PEPFAR Ethiopia's share of the partnership framework under preventing new infections, which is also a sub-set of the SPM II goals. The main intervention strategies and focuses of these programs are guided by the epidemiological portfolio of the country.

This multi-year project will have different components to be implemented at community, government systems, social networks and service provision facilities level.

The main objectives:

The risk for HIV new infection is averted by availing large scale combined prevention services to 60 % of the MARPs and other bridging populations

key vulnerability factors for HIV transmission: transactional sex, risky migration, discrimination of key populations and gender norms are reduced

GOE and its regional offices are able to lead HIV prevention interventions that are based on the local epidemiology of new infection

Data will be generated to guide interventions and measure their effect

The geographic focus of the program will primarily be the hot spots in Amhara, Oromoia, SNNPR, Addis Ababa, Tigray, Afar and Gambella. The program shall largely be focused on Urban and Peri-urban areas, depending on the availability of evidences selected rural districts will be targeted for proximate and structural prevention interventions.
