M&E/SI Consultant for LINKAGES
Project OverviewThe USAID-funded project, Linkages Across the Continuum of
HIV Services for Key Populations Affected by HIV (LINKAGES), under the
President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) program is implemented by
FHI 360 in partnership with Pact, IntraHealth International and the University
of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and conducts a range of activities to reduce
HIV transmission among key populations (KP) — sex workers, men who have sex
with men, transgender persons and people who inject drugs — and improve their
enrollment and retention in care and treatment across the HIV cascade. LINKAGES
will accelerate the ability of governments, key population leaders,
organizations working with key populations, and private-sector providers to
plan and implement services that reduce HIV transmission among key populations
and their sexual partners and extend the lives of those already living with
HIV. The key elements of the FHI 360-led team’s strategic and technical
approach are:
- Identifying key populations and locales and comprehensively
assessing risk, - Diagnosing “leaks” and revealing access barriers within the HIV
services cascade,
- Scaling up “what works” while innovating to ensure the most
strategic use of resources and access to newly emerging technologies, - Addressing structural barriers and transforming local KP
organizations, - Ensuring interventions are sustainable over the long term, and
- Supporting the mainstreaming of human rights, gender and competency
and capacity development.
