Strengthening Strategic Information, Program Implementation and Capacity Building in order to Reduce Morbidity and Mortality in the Republic of South Africa under PEPFAR. - The purpose of the project is to strengthen strategic information, implementation and capacity building in order to reduce morbidity and mortality in South Africa under the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). The SAMRC will utilize assessments, evaluations, surveys, and surveillance to fulfil the following two strategies: Strategy 1: Design and implement timely activities to collect HIV and TB testing, linkages, and retention rates in AGYW, men and other key or priority populations using evidence-based, cost-effective, and innovative approaches to support sustainable prevention, care and treatment programs. Strategy 2: Routinely collect, analyze, utilize, and disseminate mortality data from vital statistics to improve surveillance of HIV and TB related mortality through collaborative approaches with stakeholders in a timely manner. In the first year, the above strategies will be implemented through the following 4 activities: i. Activity 1: Imbali Enhle: Acceptability of HIV Self-Testing and Group Sessions for HIV Prevention and Treatment. Using youth engagement and community-based approaches, the purpose of this activity is to assess acceptability of HIV self-sample testing, and role of weekly group sessions with AGYW females (16-24 years) in the acceptability of self-sample testing, and uptake as well as adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). ii. Activity 2: Strengthening Health System’s Capacity for Linkage to Care (SHeS’Cap) for AGYW and men. This activity aims to conduct implementation science to evaluate and promote the systematic uptake of evidence-based practices for improving linkage to care among AGYW and men into the health service and to strengthen the availability of pertinent health information required to improve linkage to care at the district level. This project will be based in the PEPFAR prioritized district of uMgungundlovu and will draw on existing resources and evidence-based approaches from two CDC-funded projects, viz., Linkage2Care and HERStory. iii. Activity 3: An implementation science, district-level evaluation of the implementation and effectiveness of a package of care to reduce HIV-related outcomes amongst for pregnant and lactating adolescent girls and young women. This activity will contribute towards the goal of achieving primary prevention of HIV infection amongst pregnant and lactating AGYW and improving viral suppression amongst known HIV positive young pregnant and lactating AGYW. Current policy in South Africa recommends repeat HIV testing every 3 months throughout pregnancy, at labour/delivery, at the 6-week EPI visit, every 3 months throughout breastfeeding, STI testing and partner testing. This activity includes: partner involvement in PMTCT services and ANC; putting HIV testing, STI testing, viral suppression, HIV-prevention behavior, getting perspectives on the acceptability and attitudes on PrEP, linkages to care, and retention in care together as a package offered at the ANC service point. iv. Activity 4: Strengthening Mortality Surveillance (SMS) for improved monitoring of HIV/AIDS and TB in South Africa. The activity calls for collaboration with relevant government agencies and international experts to improve the quality of cause-of-death statistics via the generation of evidence from existing and newly-designed mortality surveillance systems for remote under- and un-serviced areas. This will be done by identifying gaps in current cause-of-death data collection and developing capacity and tools to strengthen mortality surveillance and the official CRVS system. The outcomes of the project will improve program impact and efficiencies as outlined in the South African National Strategic Plan (NSP) for HIV, TB and STIs: 2017 – 2022, Survey and Surveillance roadmap for South Africa and the COP18 PEPFAR Strategic Direction Summary to support sustained epidemic control.
