The activity will support a synthesis of data from current costing and sustainability analysis models in order to maximize the advantages of the different analytical tools used in assessing HIV/AIDS program sustainability in Ethiopia. The partner will also provide capacity building technical assistance to MOH, FHAPCO and other national and sub- national stakeholders to utilize available analytical tools and models for costing resource requirements to inform short, medium and long term policy decisions. In addition, it will conduct analysis of pricing and affordability of HIV/AIDS program services in the private and public facilities including unit cost of services

This is a national program and works with key stakeholders from the FMOH, FHAPCO, Federal Ministry of Finance (FMOF), WHO, World Bank, UNAIDS, UNICEF, CHAI, and other local and international civil society organizations.

This program will provide critical data on resource requirements for HIV.AIDS programs in short, medium and long term and under different policy scenarios. This will inform the national health system in taking alternative policy decisions during planning, financing and resource allocations to ensure sustainability of HIV/AIDS programs in the country. The program will also build the capacity of local institutions to conduct periodic program costing and sustainability assessments for a more strategic decision making, which can have a spill over effect for other health programs and the strengthening of the health system management and leadership in general.

The mechanism will rely on local capacity building to conduct future similar exercises to ensure sustainability at lower costs. The partner will put in place an M&E system to track progress and a mechanism to ensure data quality during collection, reporting, analysis and dissemination of results.
