NOTE: The following is taken from summaries released by PEPFAR on the PEPFAR Data Dashboard. They are incomplete summary paragraphs only and do not contain the full mechanism details. When the full narratives are released, we will update the mechanism pages accordingly.

The INS works at the national level, and work is done with strong linkages to all other areas of health. Investments in COP14 will strengthen the capacity of Mozambique’s National Institute of Health to generate scientific and technical solutions for the main public health problems in Mozambique, with special emphasis on HIV/AIDS.

Specific Objectives: Laboratory; build national capacity to provide high quality assurance of lab testing, implement rapid test quality improvement for HIV rapid testing, expand SLMTA training, implement and expand the national external quality assurance program, adapt the INS biosafety program for clinical lab network, roll out TB smear microscopy training, Strategic information; conduct 2015 ANC sentinel surveillance, conduct the next round of integrated bio-behavioral surveillance, strengthen data management and epidemiology unit, conduct viral load suppression and acquired HIV drug resistance monitoring, support demographic surveillance systems in two locations, continue and strengthen the combination prevention evaluation in Chokwe; OHSS; strengthen the field epidemiology laboratory training program (FELTP), continue to support outbreak investigations and field placements.

The over-reaching goal of the agreement with INS is to build the national health service in order to create a more self-sufficient, autonomous organization that will require less external financial and technical support over time.

INS had very little pipeline to be considered in determining the COP14 budget.

Mechanism Target Information

Since COP2014, PEPFAR no longer produces narratives for every mechanism it funds. However, PEPFAR has now included performance targets or indicator information for each mechanism based on the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) system. The MER guidance is available on PEPFAR's website https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. Note that COP years 2014-2015 were under a previous version of the MER system and the indicators and definitions may have changed as of the new 2.0 guidance.
