This activity is in support of Mozambique's five year SI strategy to technically and financially support high-priority HIV/AIDS-related surveillance, behavioral and population-based surveys, targeted evaluation activities, and policy-related analysis. Specifically, this activity will continue funding for an ASPH fellow into country to work with the SI team to assist the group in SI activities related to prevention, treatment and care.

This person will work primarily on assisting the National Institute of Statistics to conduct the 2007 Post-census mortality survey, including participating in training, data analysis and reporting. The fellow will also provide logistical and program support to other targeted evaluations and SI activities proposed and approved through the FY2006 Emergency Plan funding.
