The Kingdom of Eswatini is in Southern Africa and shares borders with South Africa and Mozambique. The country has a population of about 1.1 million, composed of 48.6% men and 51.4% women. The country has four administrative regions in terms of government structures, namely Hhohho, Manzini, Lubombo and Shiselweni.
The MOH LISTEN Project is implemented in 5 Tinkhundla and 8 chiefdoms: Ekukhanyeni (Nkiliji and Mkhulamini chiefdoms), Lobamba Lomdzala (Luyengweni chiefdom), Ludzeludze (Zombodze and Mbekelweni chiefdoms), and Mafutseni (Kuchwaleni chiefdoms) in the Manzini Region and Lugongolweni (kaLanga & Makhewu chiefdom) in the Lubombo Region.
The purpose of the LISTEN project is to catalyze and capture innovation at every level of the health delivery system, from communities to cabinets and heads of state within, to maximize impact with currently available tools and accelerate the uptake of new technologies. The MOH-LISTEN Project will continue to drive sustainable impact in the prevention of HIV and TB through leveraging and building on national, regional and community level networks. LISTEN recognizes that sustainable control of the HIV epidemic requires that the needs of vulnerable sub-populations are met in the context of understanding the diverse dynamics and the cross-sectoral drivers of incident HIV in these populations, and therefore the respective interventions most likely to have the most significant impact.
The project will contribute towards accelerating the reduction of new infections in adolescent girls and young women and other at-risk individuals with harmonized interventions through the various MOH programs and partners such DREAMS, PrEP, STI screening and recency testing, as well as focused preventions among men through VMMC and client-centered services. The project in the implementing 5 constituencies will also focus on strengthening the linkages between community and facility providing seamless services to maintain people on uninterrupted treatment, and reduce co-morbidities and mortality through client-focused service provision.
