Opportunity Summary:
The AIDS International Training and Research Program (D43) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number PAR-07-348) is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) discretionary grant that supports the creation of innovative, collaborative research training programs focused on HIV-related conditions. Its central aim is long-term and capacity-focused rather than short-term and project-specific: it is designed to help build sustainable research capability at institutions in low- and middle-income countries, strengthening the skills, mentorship, and infrastructure needed to conduct high-quality HIV-related research over time. The program emphasizes training as the primary activity, meaning successful applications typically center on developing researchers, research teams, and institutional systems that can continue producing impactful work after the grant period ends.
A key feature of this opportunity is flexibility in how training programs are designed. NIH expects that proposed programs will vary significantly depending on local needs, existing institutional strengths, and the specific HIV-related challenges being addressed. Because the scope and structure of training can differ from one application to another, award sizes are not fixed and may vary; NIH indicates that applicants should consult the funding guidelines referenced in the full announcement for details on recommended funding levels. In practice, this means programs can be tailored to different contexts, such as building capacity in clinical research, laboratory methods, implementation science, behavioral and mental health research, or other areas tied to HIV and its co-occurring conditions.
Awards are made through the D43 mechanism, which is an NIH international research training grant mechanism. The number of awards and the total dollars awarded each year are not predetermined; they depend on how many applications are submitted, how strong those applications are, and how re-competing applications are situated in terms of their prior duration and performance. The opportunity uses multiple receipt dates rather than a single one-time deadline, and the full announcement provides the specific submission schedule and instructions applicants must follow.
Eligibility is broad and includes public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations (both those with 501(c)(3) status and those without 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education where noted). Importantly, foreign institutions are eligible to apply, which aligns with the program goal of strengthening research capacity directly within low- and middle-income country institutions. The listing indicates that additional eligibility details are provided in the full announcement, so applicants are expected to confirm any specific requirements or restrictions there.
The program is categorized under education and health and is associated with multiple CFDA numbers, reflecting the cross-cutting nature of HIV research and training. The cited CFDA areas include oral diseases and disorders research (93.121), mental health research grants (93.242), alcohol research programs (93.273), drug abuse and addiction research programs (93.279), nursing research (93.361), cancer research manpower (93.398), microbiology and infectious diseases research (93.856), and international research and research training (93.989). This spread signals that HIV-related training supported by this FOA can intersect with many disciplines, including infectious disease biology, comorbid mental health and substance use conditions, cancer and other HIV-associated diseases, and health systems and nursing research.
There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, which generally means applicants are not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award. The opportunity was posted April 2, 2007, with an archive date of September 14, 2009, indicating it is an older FOA that has been archived; however, the content still describes the structure and intent of the program at the time it was active. For complete application instructions, program requirements, and submission dates, the announcement points to the NIH Grants Guide link: http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-07-348.html. For technical issues accessing the announcement, the contact provided is the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) Webmaster at FBOWebmaster@OD.NIH.GOV.
