Efficiencies for Clinical HIV Outcomes (ECHO) Activity in Mozambique

The goal of the Efficiencies for Clinical HIV Outcomes (ECHO) activity is to support the Government of Mozambiques (GRM) achievement of HIV/AIDS epidemic control and establishing a sustainable, government-led HIV response by 2023 in provinces where USAID is the primary clinical support partner. ECHO will focus on 5 objectives.

In close partnership with the GRM, MISAU and partner DPS authorities and using PEPFARs technical considerations ECHO will: 1) Strengthen the essential public health services necessary for HIV epidemic control at the national, provincial and district level to ensure long-term sustainability of the HIV response. 2) Reach 95% HIV treatment coverage in designated geographic regions in Mozambique by the end of the activity. 3) Reach at least 95% viral suppression among people receiving antiretroviral therapy and maintain this level of suppression during the life of the activity in designated geographic regions in Mozambique; 4) Ensure that Mozambique is utilizing the latest evidence for rapid scale up and maintenance of effective HIV interventions, ECHO will routinely review global experience and annually adjust, adopt, and implement priority interventions; and 5) Generate evidence and provide the GRM with data, measured findings, and recommendations necessary to make key service delivery decisions supporting the achievement of Mozambiques annual targets for epidemic control.
