A teleconference was held on Wednesday, September 20, to answer questions about the the National HIV/AIDS Knowledge Exchange Fund RFP.
The HIV/AIDS Policy, Co-ordination and Programs Division has taken into consideration the issues raised during the teleconference and is making adjustments to the KE Fund RFP.
The adjustments are designed to move the KE fund incrementally towards the “single broker” model in preparation for the next request for proposal that is anticipated in one to three years. Discussions with interested organizations will occur following the completion of the current competitive process.
Adjustments to the current KE Fund request for proposals include:
A transition plan will be developed to ensure that service disruptions for the front-lines are minimized during the implementation of the new KE Fund activities beginning in 2007-08.
The changes listed above have been made to the National HIV/AIDS Knowledge Exchange Fund RFP that is posted on the website at the following web address: http://www.phac-aspc.gc.ca/aids-sida/funding/rfp/funding_request07_09-eng.php
