Strengthening National Health Information System to Generate Quality Health Data for Informed Decision Making in South Sudan under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)

The Award Ceiling for Year 1 is 0 (none).

CDC anticipates an Approximate Total Fiscal Year Funding amount of $4,700,000 for Year 1, subject to the availability of funds.

South Sudan’s HIV/AIDS response is largely donor-funded including health information systems (HIS).

CDC

has funded two projects since 2012 with a focus on strengthening the health system and national capacity in integrated HIV data collection, analysis and use to support an evidence-based HIV response.

The previous projects enabled the Ministry of Health (MOH) to achieve development of key national HIV guidelines and strategic plans; improve reporting of all health data through District Health Information System-2 (DHIS-2); availability of health data for global HIV reporting and PEPFAR/MOH data alignment; availability of female sex workers (FSWs) bio-behavioral survey (BBS) data; improved skills of national, state, county and facility level monitoring and evaluation (M&E) staff; generation of HIV spectrum estimates; successful Global Fund (GF) applications for HIV program support due to data availability and technical support; and improved skills of MOH staff in M&E as well as in conducting surveys.

This NOFO will build upon achievements of the previous projects and support the MOH through the five-year period on 1) Health system strengthening; 2) HIS strengthening; 3) Strengthening overall health M&E; and 4) Supporting priority HIV/TB surveillance and surveys.
