Cooperative Agreement
Overview
Grant Description
The proposed Consolidating Systems and Services for the Management of Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC) in Cameroon (COSMO) is a five-year project to be implemented across 68 health districts nationwide beginning on or around January 2023.
The COSMO project seeks to improve overall well-being among children and families infected and affected by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus/Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (HIV/AIDS), through the delivery of high-quality services that address protection, education, health, and socioeconomic status.
Specifically, COSMO will strengthen the capacity of households to ensure that children are healthy, safe, stable, and schooled through family-based case management. It aims to reduce the incidence of HIV infections among children below the age of 18 and reduce the morbidity and mortality among HIV-positive children below the age of 18 and their caregivers.
For a sustained impact, COSMO will also strengthen the capacities of local institutions and community providers to protect, care for, and support OVC.
