FHI/Côte d'Ivoire focuses primarily on the reinforcement of local capacities to provide prevention and care services to highly vulnerable populations and others affected by HIV/AIDS.

FHI in Côte d'Ivoire

FHI was awarded a bilateral contract from the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to manage the rapid expansion of HIV/AIDS activities by several national Ivoirian nongovernmental organizations (NGO) serving highly vulnerable populations (HVP) in Cote d'Ivoire.

The CDC project aims to reduce HIV and STI rates in HVP by expanding the reach and quality of services, building the capacity of local NGOs providing HVP services, and increasing coordination among NGOs.

Nationally, FHI/Côte d'Ivoire works with the Ministry of Solidarity, Security, Social Affairs and Disabled Persons, local AIDS service organizations - such as Clinique de Confiance, Centre Esperance, and the Centre d'Assistance Medical et Social, faith-based hospitals - and national and local governments.
