Detailed Description
Initiated by the governments of Australia and New Zealand, the Pacific Island HIV and STI Response Fund 2009–2013 (“Response Fund”, RF) is a US$30 million multi-donor pooled funding mechanism that supports implementations of national and regional HIV and STI strategic plans. The Secretariat of the Pacific Community (SPC) was responsible for the management and the administration of the RF.

In a second and a third mission, the consultant developed over 40 different documents, including guidelines, manuals and templates, for grantees as well as for the Grant Management Unit of the SPC, to enhance grant implementation and performance.
Finally, the consultant also developed a specially-designed tool to assist grantees and the Principal Recipient in setting the logframes and Monitoring & Evaluation frameworks for the respective 120 existing grants in 14 Pacific countries.
