TITLE: PPP (DeBeers) with gold mines in Shinyanga

This narrative represents a placeholder for a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) which is currently under

discussion with DeBeers company and their Williamson mine operation here in Tanzania. The PPP is

expected to be modeled on the successful PPP DeBeer is running in other neighboring countries, although

the details - to be finalized in the coming months - are still being concretized.

The Williamson Mine maintains a private hospital in the Shinyanga area of Tanzania. The hospital is one of

the first private sector hospitals (other than FBOs) to have received government certification as an

accredited ARV Care and Treatment Center (CTC). The CTC is currently receiving support through

Elizabeth Glazer, our Regional ARV Services partner there.

The hospital is already providing services to the larger local community, and this PPP will be designed to

allow them to further extend ART services beyond the current level. Targets are being discussed in terms

of the extent of the numbers of people in the catchment area, so precise numbers are not available at this

time (associated targets are notional).

Given the success of the other PEPFAR-DeBeers PPP collaborations, additional consideration is being

given to broadening the scope to become a regional agreement or Global Development Alliance.
