Opportunity Summary:

This funding opportunity, titled "Achieving and Sustaining TB/HIV Collaborative Activities in Cambodia under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)," is a continuation cooperative agreement issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), through CDCs Center for Global Health. It sits within the broad health assistance portfolio supported by PEPFAR and is focused on strengthening and maintaining coordinated tuberculosis (TB) and HIV activities in Cambodia, where TB and HIV co-infection can significantly worsen health outcomes if the two programs operate separately. The central aim is to support integrated approaches so that people living with HIV are routinely assessed for TB and people with TB are routinely tested for HIV, with strong referral, treatment, and prevention linkages in both directions.

Because it is structured as a cooperative agreement, the project is not simply a pass-through grant where the recipient works independently; instead, CDC typically maintains substantial involvement in technical guidance, performance monitoring, and strategic alignment with national and PEPFAR priorities. In practical terms, that usually means the funded partner is expected to work closely with national programs and other implementing partners to sustain proven TB/HIV collaborative interventions, improve service quality, and reinforce systems that allow these activities to continue over time. While the posted summary does not list detailed program components, TB/HIV collaborative efforts in PEPFAR-supported settings commonly include establishing or improving joint screening and diagnostic pathways, strengthening infection control in health facilities, expanding uptake and completion of TB preventive treatment for eligible people living with HIV, ensuring timely initiation of antiretroviral therapy for TB/HIV co-infected patients, and improving case reporting and data use so that program managers can see gaps and respond quickly.

The announcement is identified by Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA GH15-150703CONT17 and is categorized as continuation funding, which generally indicates ongoing support for an existing project or previously funded work rather than an entirely new start. The expected number of awards is one, suggesting a single implementing organization or consortium would be selected to carry the work forward. The listing shows an award ceiling of 0, which usually means the ceiling was not specified in the public synopsis or would be defined in the full funding announcement or in subsequent budget negotiations rather than indicating no funds are available. The CFDA (now often referred to as Assistance Listing) number is 93.067, which corresponds to CDC global health assistance authorities.

Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," meaning the full announcement would contain the specific eligibility language and any restrictions, such as whether foreign or U.S.-based non-governmental organizations, academic institutions, or other entities may apply, and whether applicants must have an existing relationship to the ongoing award. Key administrative dates in the synopsis include a creation date of September 20, 2016 and an original closing date of November 22, 2016, indicating the application window for this continuation award cycle. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as CDCs mechanism to maintain and deepen coordinated TB/HIV programming in Cambodia under PEPFAR, with an emphasis on sustaining results, institutionalizing collaborative practices, and ensuring that TB and HIV services are delivered in a linked, patient-centered way that reduces illness and deaths from co-infection.

What does "integrated approaches" mean in the context of this opportunity?

In this synopsis, integrated approaches refer to routine TB assessment among people living with HIV, routine HIV testing among people diagnosed with TB, and strong two-way linkages for referral, prevention, and treatment so patients can move efficiently between TB and HIV services as needed.

What level of CDC involvement should a recipient expect?

Because it is a cooperative agreement, the synopsis indicates CDC typically maintains substantial involvement, including technical guidance, performance monitoring, and strategic alignment with national and PEPFAR priorities.

Who is eligible to apply?
