Opportunity Summary:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), through its Procurement and Grants Office, released a discretionary funding opportunity announcement titled "Addressing Emerging Infectious Diseases in Bangladesh (U01)" under Funding Opportunity Number RFA CI 09 002. This award is offered as a cooperative agreement (U01), which means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the planning and execution of the work rather than simply providing funds and stepping back. The program falls under a health funding activity category and is associated with CFDA 93.283 (CDC Investigations and Technical Assistance).
The main goal of the opportunity is to strengthen Bangladesh's ability to detect and evaluate emerging infectious diseases and to support evaluation of new vaccines and other interventions that could help prevent these diseases. In practical terms, the funded work is meant to improve capacity for identifying new or growing infectious threats, assessing their public health impact, and generating evidence on prevention tools, including vaccines and other public health interventions. The emphasis is on building and reinforcing local capability in Bangladesh, not just conducting a short-term study.
Funding was structured to support a single award. The announcement indicated that approximately $2,000,000 would be available in fiscal year (FY) 2009 to fund 1 award, with an award ceiling of $2,000,000 and no stated minimum (award floor listed as $0). While the estimated total funding across the full project period is listed as $10,000,000, the specific FY2009 amount was expected to be about $2,000,000. No cost sharing or matching requirement was noted, so the applicant would not be required to contribute non-federal matching funds as a condition of the award.
Eligibility for this competition was narrowly defined. The eligible applicant specified in the announcement is the International Centre for Diarrheal Disease Research, Bangladesh (ICDDR,B). In the grants listing, this is reflected as "Others (see text field...)" with the eligibility clarification explicitly naming ICDDR,B, indicating this was effectively a targeted opportunity intended for that institution.
Key dates included a posted and creation date of February 2, 2009. The application deadline was March 3, 2009 at 5:00 PM Eastern Time (listed as both the original and current closing date). The opportunity was scheduled to be archived on April 2, 2009. For applicants or interested parties who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically, the CDC provided a help contact through PGO TIMS at 770-488-2700, along with a main contact email address (not fully shown in the provided source text). An additional information link referenced the CDC Funding Opportunities Listing as the place to find the full announcement and related materials.
