The “Ending AIDS in West Africa (EAWA) Project is the anticipated flagship HIV/AIDS cooperative agreement of the USAID/West Africa Regional Health Office (RHO).

The overarching goal of EAWA is to be a catalytic factor that accelerates progress against the UNAIDS 90-90-90 goals across West and Central Africa towards Ending AIDS in West Africa.

This project focuses on Key Populations – those populations at higher risk of HIV transmission and with higher prevalence rates of HIV – mainly men who have sex with men (MSM) and female sex workers (FSW).

By strategically replicating and scaling up high impact practices related to prevention, care, and treatment of key populations, by the end of its 5-years, indicators related to each of these “90” should demonstrate a trend line that has bent towards its goal in all of the focus countries of this activity, and measurable improvements in all countries across the ECOWAS region and Cameroon.

Focus countries include:
Togo, Burkina Faso, and along the main interstate corridors and coastal roads of West Africa (Abidjan to Lagos and potentially Abidjan to Conakry, Guinea (including Monrovia and Freetown).

With funding from other USAID Missions/Offices countries may also include:
Cote d’Ivoire, Cameroon, Ghana, Mali, Senegal and Nigeria.

This project is ambitious, and relies on innovation, leveraging, and partnerships to achieve its goals.

It is also based on principles of evidence-based learning, local ownership and sustainability, and client-centered approaches.
