This is a continuing activity. In 2009, a new collaboration has been established between US Government with the Government of Mozambique and Brazil to strengthen the response to HIV and AIDS in Mozambique; a formal agreement was signed between the three governments in 2010. This supports the overall goals of the Partnership Framework to strengthen the response of civil society to HIV and strengthening the national health system, including procurements/logistics systems and monitoring and evaluation systems.

This main objectives of this trilateral agreement and areas of collaboration are:

1) Strengthening systems of procurement and logistics for the distribution and warehousing of drugs, medical supplies, and other commodities of the national Health Service through Central de Medicamentos e Artigos Médicos (CMAM)

2) Support the Government of Mozambique to strengthen systems and practices in the Monitoring and Evaluation in the health sector as well as part of the national response to HIV/AIDS

3) Strengthen the capacity of civil society to respond to the HIV/AIDS epidemic through 1) greater effective participation of people living with HIV and AIDS in the response, and 2) strengthened social communication in HIV/AIDS

Activities in these three areas include training of relevant staff at the National and sub-national level, strengthening and harmonization of national plans, and development and dissemination of national policies, procedures and guidelines in the three areas. Activities have been designed to leverage the comparative advantage of all three collaborating governments, with a focus on leveraging existing Lusophone tools and resources in this South-to-South collaboration.

Through this activity, each government will contribute technical and financial resources to the implementation of the agreed upon work plan. USG funds will be used for a partner to support local coordination of programmatic activities in the three areas as well as support for the logistics and of activities planned (funds for travel, training, reproduction of materials.)

As significant funding was allocated in PF 09 and COP 10 budgets, and activities have not yet started, only an additional $100,000 has been allocated (from SI) to this activity. Additional funding may be added in COP 12 depending on pipeline and progress of activities.
