|Text=DCCDC's office in Windhoek, Namibia (CDC Namibia), is responsible for [[PEPFAR ]] funds awarded to government agencies and for-profit and nonprofit organizations (recipients) in Namibia.

Our audit found that CDC Namibia did not always monitor recipients' use of [[PEPFAR ]] funds in accordance with HHS and other Federal requirements. There was evidence that CDC Namibia performed some monitoring of recipients' use of [[PEPFAR ]] funds. However, most of the recipient cooperative agreement files did not include required documents or evidence that CDC Namibia had monitored all cooperative agreements. CDC Namibia did not consistently monitor the cooperative agreements in accordance with HHS and other Federal requirements because it did not have written policies and procedures for the monitoring process. As a result, CDC Namibia did not have assurance that [[PEPFAR ]] funds were used as intended by law.
