Opportunity Summary:

The Community based HIV/AIDS Prevention Angola grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number 674-10-0056) is a USAID-funded cooperative agreement focused on lowering HIV incidence in Angola by reducing HIV transmission across the general population, with a strong emphasis on community-level prevention. The central idea is to shift behaviors and norms that drive risk by expanding practical, locally delivered prevention efforts rather than relying only on facility-based services. In addition to direct prevention outcomes, the opportunity prioritizes building durable in-country capacity so Angolan organizations can plan, coordinate, and sustain comprehensive HIV prevention initiatives over time.

Programmatically, the opportunity targets prevention among at-risk adults, at-risk youth, and their sexual partners. The expected approach is community-based and behavior-focused, meaning applicants would typically be expected to implement activities that strengthen protective behaviors (for example, increasing consistent use of proven prevention methods, improving risk awareness and safer decision-making, and encouraging partner communication and healthier sexual norms). The description also highlights institutional strengthening as a core deliverable: the award is meant to improve the ability of Angolan entities to coordinate prevention programming and deliver it effectively, so that prevention activities are not only implemented but embedded within local systems and organizations in a way that can continue after external funding ends.

Administratively, this is a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement, which usually means substantial involvement by the funding agency in the design refinement, oversight, or technical direction during implementation compared with a standard grant. The funding activity category is Health, and USAID’s office in Pretoria, South Africa, is listed as the issuing agency (South Africa USAID Pretoria). The opportunity anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $8,300,000. The award ceiling is also listed as $8,300,000, with no award floor specified. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, and eligibility is broadly unrestricted (open to any type of entity), subject to any additional eligibility clarifications in the full announcement text.

The opportunity was posted and created on July 16, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 17, 2010, and an archive date of September 16, 2010, indicating the solicitation is from a past funding cycle. For applicants or interested parties who had trouble accessing the announcement electronically, the listed contact was Jacob Duiker, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 0027124522166 or by email at jduiker@usaid.gov.
