Programming Goals
- The PEPFAR Community funding Programme (PCGP) aims to give funding to initiatives that put creative ideas into practise and advance PEPFAR’s goal to lowering HIV infections and ensuring equitable, inclusive access to treatment.
- In order to strengthen the nation’s HIV response, they want to achieve this by incorporating new ideas and methods into programme designs that are responsive to community needs for prevention and treatment. They also want to combat stigma and discrimination that prevent populations affected by HIV from having equitable access to comprehensive services.
- Key and priority populations affected by HIV/AIDS should be among the programmes’ targeted beneficiaries. Key populations (KPs), priority groups like adolescent girls and young women (AGYW), people with disabilities (PLWDs), people living with HIV (PLHIV), and orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) are a few examples, but they are not the only ones.
