Dear colleagues and friends,
 
The PEPFAR – UNAIDS Faith Initiative is pleased to invite you to the Interfaith Health Platform and Academic Consortium webinar "Capacity Strengthening of Faith Based Health Facilities to Increase Scope and Quality of HIV Care: Key Findings from Capacity Assessmentsthat will take place virtually on 24 October 2023 from 9 am to 10:30 am Atlanta; 3 pm to 4:30 pm Geneva; 4 pm to 5:30 pm Nairobi.
 
This webinar will summarize key findings from two capacity assessment studies of the Academic Consortium (St. Paul’s University, Kenya, and Emory University, U.S) of the PEPFAR – UNAIDS Faith Initiative. These assessments, carried out in Kenya, focused on:
  • Capacities and gaps in HIV service delivery of faith-based providers
  • Clinical knowledge and skills of HIV providers in faith-based facilities in offering best-practice clinical services to members of key populations groups.      
Findings from a third study by a researcher in the Consortium conducted in South Africa will offer a comparison to the findings in Kenya. Following the presentations, the webinar will shift to a discussion of strategies and programmatic responses to the identified gaps.
