Position title
Community Engagement Coordinator Intern (1 Position)
Description

FHI 360 is a nonprofit human development organization dedicated to improving lives in lasting ways by advancing integrated, locally driven solutions. Our staff includes experts in Health, Education, Nutrition, Environment, Economic Development, Civil Society, Gender, Youth, Research and Technology– creating a unique mix of capabilities to address today’s interrelated development challenges. FHI 360 serves more than 60 countries, all 50 U.S. states and all U.S. territories.

Meeting Targets and Maintaining Epidemic Control (EpiC) is a five-year, global project funded by the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), with a period of performance from April 15, 2019, to April 14, 2024.

Building upon the successful investments in Key Population programming from the USAID-funded, FHI 360-led Linkages Across the Continuum of HIV Services for Key Populations Affected by HIV (LINKAGES) project (2014 – 2020), EpiC is designed to break through remaining, persistent barriers to the 95-95-95 goals and promote self-reliant management of national HIV programs. In response to USAID's Mission and country needs, EpiC will continue to deliver efficient, affordable, results-based technical assistance tailored to context and epidemiology that is effective in surging, scaling, and sustaining HIV services and systems for long-term epidemic control. EpiC has four objectives, which focus on filling existing HIV prevention, case finding, and treatment gaps, and on building long-term sustainability to attain and maintain epidemic control:

Objective 1: Attain and maintain HIV epidemic control among at-risk adult men, women, and priority populations.

Objective 2: Attain and maintain HIV epidemic control among key populations (KPs).

Objective 3: Improve program management (including HIS and HRH) and financial systems to ensure attainment and maintenance of epidemic control; and

Objective 4: Support the transition of prime funding and implementation to capable local partners to meet the PEPFAR goal of 70% of funding to local partners.
