Governmental and Communities Capacities Reinforcement to Design Adapted Responses to
Orphans and Vulnerable Children Affected by HIV and AIDS
MOZAMBIQUEMOZAMBIQUE Four phases1. 2003 – 2005: EU (USD 1,500,000) and
UNICEF (USD 242,505)2. 2005 – 2007: CNCS (USD 400,000)3. 2007 – 2009: UNICEF (USD 900,000)
and MEDICOR (USD 500,000)4. 2010 – 2011: UNICEF (USD
655,000)

MOZAMBIQUEMOZAMBIQUEPhase one:
Manica (Machaze, Mossurize, Macossa) Sofala (Beira, Dondo, Nhamatanda, Chibabava e
Marrumeu) and Tete (Mutara and Chiuta)
Phase two: June 2005 – August 2007Manica (Dst. Machaze, Mossurize, Macossa)
Phase three: July 2007 – December 2009Manica (Dst. Machaze, Mossurize, Macossa, Guro)
, Sofala (Marringue, Gorongosa, Chibabava)
Phase four: March 2010 – December 2011Manica (Dst. Machaze, Mossurize, Macossa, Guro),
Sofala (Marringue, Gorongosa, Chibabava, Buzi)
The Context of HIV and OVC 20,226,296 million Mozambicans – 55% woman More than 50% of Moz population under 18 years HIV Prevalence, in 2009 is 15% (Ep. Sur. Rnd) In 2005, about 1.6 million (18%) of children were
orphans. 20 percent due to AIDS, increasing to 50% by 2010. Children with disabilities estimated around 1,0 million (10%)
Vulnerability of Children worsens poverty of families Vulnerability worsens degradation of Children’s Rights Lack awareness about children rights and available
services Bureaucracy is another limiting aspect to access
services

National Responses to HIV and OVCs Within the “three-ones principles” OVCs are within
the mitigation pillar of AIDS NSP MMAS (a new ministry) with the mandate to
develop and coordinate responses to vulnerable groups
PACOV (by MMAS) prioritizes on: 1) family and community responses; 2) capacity building to institutions; 3) multisectorial coordinated responses; and 4)Quality M&E framework
Limited capacity of MMAS to follow up implementation of PACOV at province and district levels
CBOs prioritize initiatives on food and water

MOZAMBIQUEMOZAMBIQUE
Overall Objective To contribute to the materialization of the
National Strategic Plan on HIV and AIDS (NSP) and the Action Plan for orphans and vulnerable children (PACOV) implementation
Specific Objective: Support community initiatives that take
responsibility for the health and social welfare of children affected by the AIDS epidemic

Expected Results 1. Governmental response to OVCs’ basic
needs is improved by a developed Community-based “Identification /Sensitization /Orientation” (ISO) system
2. OVCs and their foster families living conditions are improved by Community-based Organizations programs
3. Community awareness about HIV and AIDS and OVCs’ rights is increased

Main Obstacles Availability of resources to implement the closing
phase of the project as per needs Monitoring system that guarantees that data will not
be duplicated Sustainability of data flow with volunteers is a huge
challenge Lack of Social Action related human resources (in
quantity and quality) at district level for the DSMAS Nationaly the Multisectorial Dynamic is becoming
weak Capacities of CBOs to adapt their initiatives to
contexts challenging (for example in time of droughts)

Main Lessons Learnt ISO actors need to be trained on their specific roles ISO actors need to be trained on their specific roles CBOs need more visibility by implementing more CBOs need more visibility by implementing more
initiatives, thus reducing the quantity of CBOsinitiatives, thus reducing the quantity of CBOs Work of volunteers and mobilizers with CBOs Work of volunteers and mobilizers with CBOs
should be coordinated to avoid duplication and should be coordinated to avoid duplication and exclusionexclusion
Involvement of local authorities and leaders on Involvement of local authorities and leaders on M&E is neededM&E is needed
MMAS representatives should lead the processes of MMAS representatives should lead the processes of monitoring cases identified and provide responsesmonitoring cases identified and provide responses
