Description

The purpose of this FOA is to strengthen the capacity of the Department of National Registration, Passport and Citizenship (NRPC) under the Ministry of Home Affairs, GRZ to collect and report national vital registration data. AIDS has been shown to account for 25% of deaths in the community in Zambia, so PEPFAR support of mortality surveillance is needed to assist the country with documenting changes in HIV-related and other deaths in the context of treatment and prevention programs. Funding supports: 1) Investments in technology to digitize registration data capture and use; 2) Conduct of community-based mortality surveillance using SAVVY methods for data collection every other year, and; 3) Capacity building for DNRPC to have the data analyzed and reported routinely.
