Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Building Institutional Capacity to Improve HIV-TB Care and Treatment Service Quality in India under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) India," is a continuation grant issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), specifically within CDC's Center for Global Health. It is listed under Funding Opportunity Number CDC-RFA-GH15-154003CONT17 and is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the technical direction, monitoring, and collaboration during implementation rather than simply providing funds with minimal federal engagement.
The program sits within the health funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.067, a CDC funding stream commonly linked to global health and HIV-related initiatives supported by PEPFAR. The focus, as reflected in the title and description, is on strengthening institutional capacity in India to improve the quality of HIV-TB care and treatment services. In practical terms, that kind of aim usually centers on improving how health systems and partner institutions plan, manage, deliver, and continuously improve integrated services for people affected by both HIV and tuberculosis, two diseases that are closely linked clinically and programmatically, particularly because TB remains a leading cause of illness and death among people living with HIV.
Eligibility is not broadly open to all applicant types; it is listed as "Others" with additional eligibility details referenced in the full opportunity text. That framing is common for continuation opportunities, where eligibility may be effectively limited to an existing award recipient or a narrow set of pre-identified partners involved in an ongoing CDC/PEPFAR program. The opportunity category is explicitly marked as continuation, reinforcing that this is not a new, open competition but rather a mechanism to extend or continue funding for an existing project or cooperative agreement relationship.
Key timing details show the opportunity record was created on September 12, 2016, with an original closing date of November 10, 2016. The listing indicates an expected number of awards of one, which again aligns with continuation funding where the agency anticipates a single continuation recipient rather than multiple new awards across competing applicants. The award ceiling is listed as 0, which usually signals that the public synopsis does not specify a maximum award amount in the posted summary or that funding levels are determined through internal budgeting and continuation negotiations rather than through a published cap.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a CDC/PEPFAR-supported continuation cooperative agreement intended to sustain and deepen work in India that improves the quality of HIV-TB care and treatment by building the capacity of key institutions. While the brief synopsis does not spell out specific activities, "institutional capacity" and "service quality" in an HIV-TB context typically implies support for strengthening program management and oversight, improving clinical and laboratory practices linked to HIV/TB diagnosis and treatment, enhancing data systems and quality improvement processes, building workforce skills through training and mentoring, and improving coordination between HIV and TB services so patients receive timely, effective, and continuous care.
