Opportunity Information: Apply for PSG MBA FY24 01

The Community-Led Monitoring (CLM) grant opportunity is a PEPFAR-funded small grants competition administered by the U.S. Mission (Embassy) to Eswatini. Its core purpose is to strengthen the quality of HIV services across all four regions of Eswatini by systematically gathering and using client and community feedback. The program is designed around the idea that people who use HIV services, along with trusted community members, are often best positioned to identify what is working, what is failing, and what needs to change inside health facilities to improve outcomes and patient experience.

This opportunity invites proposals from registered local community-based organizations and a wide range of civil society entities whose work focuses on HIV programming and who have the ability to collect both quantitative and qualitative information about HIV service delivery. The call specifically highlights networks and groups representing key populations, people living with HIV, people with disabilities, and other affected community groups, reflecting a strong emphasis on reaching those most impacted by service gaps, stigma, discrimination, or accessibility barriers. Eligible applicants include not-for-profit organizations such as NGOs, civil society organizations, traditional community groups, faith-based organizations, and public or private educational institutions.

The CLM approach centers on training community members to use standardized monitoring tools to document what clients experience when they seek HIV services. Monitoring is expected to cover the full service pathway, including HIV testing services, HIV treatment services, and key treatment outcomes and processes such as retention in care and viral load (VL) monitoring. The grant also anticipates collecting information on service provider perceptions, attitudes, and practices, as well as overall client satisfaction. By using standardized tools and structured methods, the program aims to generate credible, comparable data that can reveal patterns and pinpoint challenges at the facility level, such as delays, stockouts, confidentiality concerns, poor treatment by staff, weak counseling, barriers for priority populations, or breakdowns in follow-up that affect retention and viral suppression.

A defining feature of the program is that the data is not meant to sit in a report. Grantees are expected to synthesize findings and bring them back into joint discussions with community representatives, providers, and facility managers. The intent is to create regular, practical dialogue where problems are validated, solutions are agreed upon, and action items are tracked over time. In other words, monitoring should lead directly to problem-solving and accountability, with continued follow-up to see whether facilities actually implement improvements and whether those improvements are felt by clients.

Because of that, applicants are expected to demonstrate an ability to collaborate at two levels at once. At the national level, they should be able to coordinate with PEPFAR and other key stakeholders involved in the HIV response. At the community level, they must be capable of working constructively with health facility staff and with the clients receiving PEPFAR-supported services. The program description stresses cooperation rather than confrontation: CLM should encourage constituencies to share real experiences, promote joint action, and ultimately strengthen the health system response while keeping community voices central. The funds are explicitly intended for community-driven activities that benefit the broader community in the areas where the funding is applied.

In practical grant terms, the opportunity is listed as discretionary grant funding under CFDA 19.029, titled "Community-Led Monitoring (CLM)" (Funding Opportunity Number: PSG MBA FY24 01). The award ceiling is USD 25,000, with an anticipated five awards. The original closing date listed is 2024-08-12. Additional guidance on PEPFARs CLM model and tools is referenced through PEPFAR fact sheets and implementation resources, signaling that applicants should align their monitoring design with established PEPFAR approaches and standardized methodologies.
