## What the grant funds

Section 1: Program Description The U.S. Embassy’s PEPFAR Small Grants office is pleased to announce an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out a community-led monitoring (CLM) program. Priority Region: All four regions in Eswatini This funding opportunity seeks to improve the quality of HIV treatment services in Eswatini through client feedback collected by trained community members. The CLM program is funded through the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). The U.S. Embassy in Eswatini administers the PEPFAR Small Grants program and is seeking proposals from registered local community-based organizations and other civil society groups, networks of key populations (KP), people living with HIV (PLHIV), people with disabilities, and other affected groups or community entities that gather quantitative and qualitative data about HIV services and whose mission and activities focus on HIV programming. CLM is key to ensuring availability, access to, and delivery of quality HIV care and treatment services. CLM will empower patients and communities to seek out treatment services, increase health literacy, expand engagement with health service delivery, support demand creation, and demand accountability from the health system to improve and deliver these services. Potential grantees should have the capability to collaborate at the national level with PEPFAR and key community-focused stakeholders, and at the community level with health facility staff and clientele receiving PEPFAR-supported services. Grantees should be able to implement a monitoring program to promote cooperation in addressing HIV-related issues, encourage constituencies to share their experiences, and facilitate joint action that makes a difference in the HIV response. CLM data will be collected using standardized tools and synthesized through a variety of methods that reveal insights from communities about challenges and/or issues identified with HIV service delivery at health facilities. A standard activity of potential grantees will be to conduct CLM of HIV testing services, treatment services (including retention and VL), service provider perceptions, attitudes, and practices, and client satisfaction.
