This USAID/PEPFAR-funded project, led by PSI, sought to implement effective and tested approaches to support a national, coordinated approach to combination prevention programs through three pillars of interventions: structural, behavioral, and biomedical. EGPAF is focusing on the biomedical pillar in order to strengthen the male circumcision (MC) program through the integration of MC messages into existing community activities including community days, male dialogues, male support groups, and community outreach. In addition, EGPAF worked with PSI to develop and finalize neonatal MC training curriculum for nurses, counselors, and outreach workers, and will work with public and NGO partners to ensure linkages between behavior change communications activities and MC service delivery activities.
