BACKGROUND
The Zimbabwe
National Network of PLWHIV (ZNNP+) was founded in 1992 and officially
registered as a non-governmental organisation (NGO) in 1999. The
organization is a national umbrella body that represents and coordinates
the interests and activities of support groups and organizations
of People Living with HIV and AIDS (PLWHA) throughout Zimbabwe.
Under the Global Fund round 8, ZNNP+, as an SSR is responsible for
strengthening networks of PLWHIV with technical and management support
from ZAN as an SR. Within this grant, a mapping of support groups
and organizations of PLWHIV is to be undertaken in year one to establish
a baseline of the networks. It is against this background that this
EOI call is being made.
The first assignment
is to conduct a nationwide baseline study that will establish the
number of support groups (SGs) and organization of people living
with HIV in Zimbabwe. This baseline study will also define the capacities
of these SGs and PLWHIV Organization in order to inform the identification
of SGs and PLWHIV organizations that will require technical capacity
building from ZNNP+. This baseline will also define the baseline
figure for a key output indicator (number of SGs and PLWHIV Organizations
with institutional capacity).
The second assignment which will be informed by the baseline survey
is the development of computerised database that will house data
on SGs and organizations of PLWHIV that are under ZNNP+. This database
will be managed at national and sub-national levels.
Both assignments
will contribute to achieving objective 7 of the Round 8 HIV Grant
i.e. to strengthen mechanisms for coordination, collaboration and
accountability among PLWHIV networks in the mainstreaming of MIPA
within the national response.
