This is a continuing activity with a one-year cost extension.The goal of this program is to increase access to and use of cervical cancer prevention services among HIV positive women in Ethiopia.

To achieve this goal, Pathfinder International will:

1. Build national capacity to integrate cervical cancer prevention (CCP) into the national HIV care and treatment plan.

2. Integrate the single-visit approach to CCP into the care package for PLHIV.

3. Increase CCP awareness among community members and its service uptake among women living with HIV.

In past years, Pathfinder:

1. Provided technical support to FMOH and RHBs.

2. Conducted media advocacy to raise awareness.

3. Scaled-up CCP service delivery sites to 14 public hospitals in five regions (Tigray, Amhara, Addis Ababa, Oromia and SNNPR). Currently, all 14 hospitals are providing CCP services and 5 Centers of Excellence hospitals are equipped with Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure (LEEP) and treating HIV positive women with larger lesions.

4. Screened 14,935 HIV positive women with VIA, of which 1553 (10.3%) were found screen positive. VIA screen positive women were provided appropriate management.

With the program’s success, the Ministry of Health has made cervical cancer prevention and control among its top priorities, and is working to scale up the service to 118 health facilities. FMOH has directly requested USG to continue this technical assistance for one additional year to help with its scale up. This partner will focus on further capacity building to ensure a complete and sustainable transition of the program by the end of COP 2014.

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.
