Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "Building Capacity and Networks to Address Emerging Infectious Diseases in the Americas" is a CDC continuation funding announcement (Funding Opportunity Number: CDC RFA CK13-130102CONT14) that supports ongoing public health work focused on detecting, preventing, and responding to emerging infectious disease threats across the Americas. It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the work beyond simply providing funds, such as collaborating on technical direction, coordination, and performance monitoring. The activity category is health, and the opportunity is tied to broader global health security efforts, including collaboration with the World Health Organization and its regional offices.

This announcement is not an open competition for new applicants. Eligibility is restricted to organizations that were already funded under the earlier related award (CK13-1301), specifically referencing the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) work under "Building Capacity and Networks to Address Emerging Infectious Diseases in the Americas." In practical terms, this means the continuation funds are intended to maintain or expand an existing program rather than launch a brand-new one with new partners. The listing indicates an expectation of multiple awards (estimated at 50), reflecting that the continuation may cover a network of existing grantees or sub-awards operating under an established framework.

The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 93.099, a CDC program assistance listing that broadly covers work connected to public health collaboration and global health security efforts. The description emphasizes strengthening capacity and networks, which usually includes enhancing surveillance and laboratory systems, improving workforce capabilities, building cross-border coordination, and supporting rapid information sharing and response mechanisms for outbreaks. Because it is framed around emerging infectious diseases in the Americas, the intent is likely to support regional readiness for events like novel influenza strains, arboviral outbreaks, or other newly detected or re-emerging pathogens, while also reinforcing the systems needed for compliance with international health obligations such as the International Health Regulations.

Administrative details show the announcement was posted and created on March 21, 2014, with an original and current closing date of May 5, 2014, and an archive date of June 4, 2014. No cost sharing or matching is required. The funding fields in the record (estimated total funding, award ceiling, award floor) are listed as 0, which commonly occurs in database extracts when the specific dollar amounts are handled in continuation documentation or controlled through internal budgeting rather than published as a new competitive notice.
