CALL FOR PROPOSALS FOR GLOBAL FUND SUB-SUB RECIPIENTS GRANT
Botswana Christian Health & AIDS Intervention Program (BOCHAIP) is pleased to announce an open call for proposal for Sub Sub-Recipients in the implementation of the Prevention Programs for Adolescents, Girls, and Young Women (AGYW) including Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision (VMMC) under the Global Fund country grant administered by African Comprehensive HIV/AIDS Partnerships (ACHAP).
Botswana is one of the countries with a high burden of tuberculosis (TB) and HIV. The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and Malaria (GFATM), an international financing mechanism, channels financial resources to support countries reduce the impact of AIDS, TB and malaria by facilitating the implementation of strong and sustainable programs through in-country partners. The GFATM relies heavily on Country Coordinating Mechanisms (CCMs), Principal Recipient (PRs) and local partners to ensure resources are efficiently used to help those most in need. The Global Fund has approved just over $23.5m for Botswana to support the country’s efforts to fight TB and HIV. GFATM called for a concept note for TB and HIV that presents each specific program in addition to any integrated and joint programming for the two diseases with the intention to maximize the impact of its investments to make an even greater contribution towards the vision of a world free of the burden of TB and HIV. The Botswana CCM selected the Ministry of Health (MOH) as a Principal Recipient (PR) for this grant. MOH in turn appointed ACHAP as the Fund Administrator (FA) for the period of September 2022 – December 2024. BOCHAIP has been awarded the role of Sub Recipient (SR) under the supervision of the Fund Administrator to implement Prevention Programs AGYW including VMMC and will be responsible for programmatic management, financial management, monitoring and reporting for this component of the grant.
To this extent BOCHAIP will select, induct, manage and supervise Sub Sub-recipients (SSRs) for the implementation of the grant. BOCHAIP therefore invites eligible local organizations to submit applications for SSR to implement Prevention Programs for AGYW including VMMC.
