Background
The project involved the assessment of the organisational capacity of shortlisted sub-recipients to successfully implement the Global Fund HIV/AIDS Grants and the development of a capacity-building plan where gaps were identified. Sub-recipients were then ranked according to (a) those who had the capacity to commence implementation (b) those who could commence implementation and fill observed capacity gaps while implementing (c) those with capacity gaps that must be addressed before any disbursement.
The organisations assessed include FHI 360, APIN (AIDS Prevention Initiative in Nigeria), CIHP (Center for Integrated Health Program), Hygeia, PPFN (Planned Parenthood Federation of Nigeria), and IHVN (Institute of Human Virology).
