Opportunity Information: Apply for AF NGA PEPFAR 22 01
The U.S. Embassy Nigeria, through the PEPFAR Coordination Office at the U.S. Department of State, announced a discretionary grant competition called "PEPFAR Grants for Community-Led Monitoring" (Funding Opportunity Number: AF NGA PEPFAR 22 01). The program funds organizations to run Community-Led Monitoring (CLM), a community-initiated and client-centered approach designed to strengthen access to HIV services for people living with HIV. In practical terms, CLM supports structured feedback and evidence gathering from clients and communities so HIV services can be improved in ways that are grounded in real experiences at health facilities and in surrounding communities.
The core purpose of the opportunity is to improve HIV service delivery and client outcomes by building a shared, solutions-oriented understanding of what helps or prevents people from accessing and using HIV services. The emphasis is on a collaborative and respectful process that looks at both enablers and barriers, rather than a fault-finding exercise. By centering the perspectives of people living with HIV, the program aims to surface issues that may be missed by routine reporting systems, such as stigma-related barriers, long waiting times, confidentiality concerns, service quality problems, stock-outs, inconvenient clinic hours, or negative client-provider interactions that can discourage consistent care.
The grant focuses on three closely connected objectives. First, it seeks to assess barriers to HIV service access and uptake specifically from the viewpoint of the client, meaning people living with HIV who are the direct end users of services. Second, it aims to evaluate gaps in service delivery as experienced by clients, with particular attention to how those gaps can undermine treatment adherence and continuity of care. Third, it requires turning what is learned into action by identifying practical, actionable recommendations and deploying mitigations to address the needs and service gaps that are documented. The overall intent is to move beyond data collection into continuous quality improvement, where community feedback leads to concrete changes in how services are organized and delivered.
From an accountability standpoint, the opportunity positions CLM as a tool to improve the quality and impact of HIV programs at both programmatic and policy levels. That means findings are expected to inform on-the-ground service improvements at facilities and community sites, while also helping decision-makers identify systemic issues that may require changes in management practices, resource allocation, or guidance. PEPFARs broader goal through this initiative is to strengthen accountability mechanisms so HIV services are more responsive to client needs and better able to retain people in treatment, ultimately supporting improved health outcomes.
In terms of basic grant details, the opportunity is offered by the Department of State, U.S. Mission to Nigeria, under the health funding activity category (CFDA 19.029). The funding instrument is a grant, with an award ceiling of $25,000 and an estimated 15 awards expected. The opportunity was created on April 12, 2021, with an original closing date of May 31, 2021. Eligibility is listed as "Others" with further clarification referenced in an additional eligibility section, implying that applicants needed to consult the full notice for specific eligibility requirements and any preferences for community-based, civil society, or other locally grounded organizations suited to community-led work.Apply for AF NGA PEPFAR 22 01
