Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity is a continuation cooperative agreement issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Center for Global Health (CGH). It is titled "Building Systems and Capacity within the Cambodian Ministry of Health to Prevent New HIV Infections and AIDS-Related Deaths in Cambodia through PEPFAR Support to the National Center for HIV/AIDS, Dermatology, and STDs (NCHADS) under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)." In practical terms, the opportunity is focused on strengthening Cambodia's national public health systems and institutional capacity, specifically within the Ministry of Health and its specialized technical body NCHADS, so the country can reduce new HIV infections and lower HIV- and AIDS-related mortality through improved programming, management, and service delivery supported by PEPFAR.
The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which generally means CDC expects substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funding. Rather than a hands-off grant, cooperative agreements typically involve close collaboration, technical guidance, and ongoing coordination between CDC and the recipient to ensure activities align with PEPFAR goals and national HIV program priorities. The activity category is health, and the CFDA number listed is 93.067, which is associated with global HIV/AIDS-related public health work supported by CDC.
This announcement is explicitly labeled as "continuation" funding, meaning it is intended to extend or continue an existing project or relationship rather than start an entirely new, open competition. That intent is reinforced by the expectation of only one award. The eligible applicant field points to "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," which in many continuation notices signals that eligibility may be limited to a current implementing partner or a specific organization already performing the work under a prior award, rather than being broadly open to new applicants.
In terms of purpose and scope, the central theme is capacity building within government health structures, especially NCHADS, which is Cambodia's national center responsible for HIV/AIDS, dermatology, and sexually transmitted diseases. The focus on "building systems and capacity" suggests work that strengthens the core elements needed to run an effective national HIV response: planning, coordination, surveillance and strategic information, program monitoring and evaluation, quality improvement, laboratory and diagnostic systems, linkage-to-care and treatment program oversight, and broader health systems functions that allow HIV prevention and treatment services to be delivered reliably at scale. While the provided text does not list specific required activities, the stated outcome goals are clear: prevent new HIV infections and avert AIDS-related deaths, which typically involves both prevention interventions (such as targeted outreach, testing, prevention of mother-to-child transmission, key population programming, and condom and behavior change efforts) and treatment-related support (such as testing-to-treatment linkage, antiretroviral therapy scale-up, retention and adherence, and viral load monitoring systems) implemented in a way that strengthens national ownership and sustainability.
Administrative details in the source data indicate the opportunity number is CDC RFA GH13 130305CONT17. The posting (creation) date is September 27, 2016, with an original closing date of November 30, 2016. The announcement lists an award ceiling of 0, which commonly means the ceiling is not specified in the summary record or is to be determined through other program documentation, negotiation, or availability of funds. The expected number of awards is one, consistent with continuation funding designed to maintain an ongoing program.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as CDC/PEPFAR support to reinforce Cambodia's governmental HIV program infrastructure through NCHADS, using a cooperative agreement model that emphasizes close U.S. government technical engagement. The intended impact is a stronger, more capable national HIV system that can more effectively deploy prevention and treatment services, improve performance and accountability, and ultimately reduce HIV transmission and AIDS-related deaths in Cambodia.
