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 goal of the Nampula Provincial Health Directorate (DPS) cooperative agreement is to prepare for the handover of specific HIV care and treatment activities from international USG partner organizations to the Nampula provincial government in Mozambique. This transition needs to occur while sustaining and continuing to scale up care and treatment services for PLHIV without life-threatening disruptions of services. Activities towards achieving this goal will focus on the areas of (1) Planning, implementation and oversight of HIV prevention, care, support, and treatment services; and (2) Human resource and institutional capacity building, especially for disease surveillance, planning, supervision, training and mentoring.

The activities of this implementing mechanism are linked to Partnership Framework (PF) goal 3: Strengthen the Mozambican health system, including human resources for health and social welfare in key areas to support HIV care, prevention and treatment goals, and goal 4: improve access to quality HIV treatment services for adults and children. Geographic coverage is Nampula province and target groups are HIV infected children, women and men, and local government and non-government organizations implementing HIV prevention care and treatment programs. The long term gains in cost efficiencies result from the transfer of program funding and implementation from international NGO partner organizations to local organizations which eliminates overhead costs.

DPS staff receive ongoing training on planning, financial and management practices as well as technical support from other US funded clinical partners. In addition, a capacity building assessment tool and monitoring system was adapted, using an existing tool and harmonizing institutional capacity ind

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.

This mechanism has no published performance targets or indicators.
