Strengthening Mozambique’s Capacity to Integrate and Sustain High-Quality Laboratory Services and Systems under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)

has rapidly increased from 67% in 2018, to 83% in 2022, contributing to improved patient monitoring and outcomes for PLHIV. This NOFO plans to build upon current accomplishments and support government institutions in Mozambique to strengthen and sustain laboratory systems and services towards achieving the UNAIDS 95-95-95 goals.The NOFO aims to attain comprehensive coverage for both VL and EID testing, facilitate the expansion of HIV testing for enhanced case detection, strengthen the diagnosis of TB and other OI, enhance the governance of laboratory systems, build technical, scientific, and managerial capabilities, and implement robust laboratory data and quality management systems (QMS). This approach encompasses comprehensive quality assurance (QA) and continuous quality improvement (QI) programs essential for HIV rapid test site certification and laboratory accreditation. This NOFO seeks to strengthen integration of laboratory systems and services to support multi-disease testing and improve responsiveness to emerging public health threats.
