KIZAZI HODARI SOUTHEN ZONE ACTIVITY is a five-year cooperative agreement (March 2022 – March 2027) funded by the American People through USAID to support the Government of Tanzania (GoT) to improve the health, well-being, and protection of the Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC) and youth in high HIV burden communities.
The primary objective of the Activity is to deliver high-quality health/HIV, social welfare, and protection services for OVC, and their caregivers. This support aims to reinforce the OVC program’s contribution to HIV epidemic control. Afya Women Group (AWG) as sub grant implementing partner, executes the Activity in collaboration with Local Government Authorities).
