Positive Action provides funding to community-led and community-based organisations that are committed to eliminating AIDS and supporting people living with HIV.
Funding Rounds
New Funding Opportunity for Community-Based Organisations
Positive Action invites applications targeted at scaling up community-based, evidence-informed interventions to address critical gaps in paediatric HIV prevention, testing, and treatment. This initiative will partner with community-based organisations to implement locally driven programmes that increase paediatric HIV testing coverage, improve linkage to care, and viral suppression rates.
Application window: 27 January 2026 – 17 February 2026
Eligible countries: Angola, Cameroon, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Mozambique, and Tanzania
Funding available: up to £300,000 over three years (up to £100,000 a year)
Proposals for Momentum grants should advance existing, evidence-based community-led interventions. Projects must focus on scaling up or replicate interventions that have already demonstrated effectiveness – this funding is not for new or pilot projects. Scale-up may build on lessons from wok inside or outside your organisation.
For this funding round, applicants should focus on children (0-14), adolescents (10-19), pregnant and breastfeeding women, and caregivers for children and adolescents.
Who can apply?
Non-governmental and community-based organisations are essential in driving change at the community level, given their strong connections with, or representation of, the populations most affected - particularly pregnant and breastfeeding women, and caregivers for children and adolescents. Positive Action places strong emphasis on localisation and equitable partnerships that align with the principles of the decolonisation agenda. We prioritise engagement with locally-led organisations – particularly those embedded within affected communities – and encourage collaboration that actively promotes local ownership, leadership, and decision-making. This commitment is integral to ensuring sustainable and culturally relevant interventions.
