to KP (e.g., sexual partners of female and male sex workers, social networks of KPs, and adolescent girls and young women (AGYW)).The NOFO will focus on outreach services to KP/PP, provision of community-based peer education, and linkage to a comprehensive package of biomedical HIV prevention services (e.g., HIV testing services (HTS), pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), condoms and voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC)), linkage to HIV care with same-day initiation, follow-up of KP who are HIV positive, and viral load suppression (VLS) as indicated in Rwanda’s HIV Guidelines. The NOFO is expected to support the provision of tailored KP-competent services through a combination of service delivery models. The NOFO also aims to reduce stigma and discrimination and to address gender-based violence (GBV) issues faced by KP/ PP. Key monitoring and evaluation (M&E) components will include routine program monitoring to track the progress on achieving the project period outcomes.
