Presentation of the project

The EpiC Project (Achieving the Goals and Maintaining Control of the Epidemic) is a global project funded by the United States through the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) and the U.S. Department of State (DOS). It provides strategic technical assistance and direct service delivery to achieve control of the HIV epidemic among all at-risk populations, strengthen global health security (GHS), including outbreak response, expand TB detection and treatment, improve maternal and child health (MCH), combat malaria and promote health system strengthening (HSS), including supply chain management.

EpiC Cameroon’s membership will support the continuation and expansion of vital HIV prevention, treatment, care and support services in Cameroon, building on the fundamental work of previous PEPFAR-funded initiatives. Emphasis will be placed on strengthening community-based platforms and integrating them into facility-based systems to increase access to quality HIV-related services, particularly for populations most at risk of HIV, long-distance truck drivers (LDTDs), children and adolescents living with HIV (C/ALHIVs), HIV-exposed infants (HEIs) and their caregivers. The programme will help to close the gaps mainly in HIV case detection (the first 95) while maintaining the achievements of the second and third 95 of the UNAIDS target. Collaboration with the Government of Cameroon (including the Ministry of Public Health and the National AIDS Control Committee), PEPFAR’s clinical partners, the Global Fund and local community-based organizations will be essential to ensure the delivery of high quality, evidence-based, family-centered interventions if necessary and population-specific.
