For every child, Care
Tanzania is implementing the fourth National Multisectoral HIV Framework (NMSF IV) 2018 – 2023 and the fourth HIV Health Sector Strategic Plan (HSHSP IV) 2018 – 2022. Both strategies ratify the global 95 – 95 – 95 goals, aiming to end the AIDS epidemic by 2030. As of December 2020.

These tree important guiding documents bring to the fore new strategic vision and directions that must be assimilated, henceforth necessitate alignment of all other strategies to these mother documents. Despite HSHSP IV having two years of implementation left, these seismic changes in three topmost strategic guidance call for review and aligning the HSHSP goals, objectives, and implementation period to the new health policy and HSSP V, the New Global AIDS Strategy and the revised national health policy. Aligning HSHSP with HSSP and Global AIDS Strategy goals, objectives, and implementation time frames will also add benefit on ease of implementation.
