Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Comprehensive Approaches to Strengthening the Health System and HIV Response in the Republic of Mozambique under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)," is a U.S. government health grant administered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS-CDC). It is listed as a continuation opportunity, which generally indicates it is intended to extend or continue ongoing work rather than launch an entirely new, open competition. The program sits within the PEPFAR framework, meaning the core purpose is to support and strengthen Mozambique's HIV response while also building the underlying health system capacity needed to sustain results over time.
The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement. In practical terms, that usually means CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond standard grant oversight, such as collaborating on planning, technical approaches, monitoring, evaluation, and coordination with other PEPFAR and Government of Mozambique partners. The funding activity category is health, and the CFDA number listed is 93.067, which corresponds to CDC's global HIV and related public health activities. The opportunity number is CDC RFA GH15-155602CONT16, which also signals a global health (GH) portfolio and continuation action.
The notice indicates up to 50 expected awards, suggesting the work may be distributed across multiple implementing partners, geographic areas, or technical focus areas that collectively contribute to a national HIV and health system strengthening effort. At the same time, the posted "award ceiling" is shown as 0, which typically reflects that a specific maximum award amount was not published in the summary record, may be determined by available funding, or may be specified elsewhere in the full announcement package. Key timeline details in the record show the opportunity was created and posted on January 26, 2016, with an original and current closing date of March 29, 2016.
Eligibility is labeled broadly as "Others," with a note to consult the additional eligibility information in the full text of the announcement for clarification. In many CDC and PEPFAR-related opportunities, this can include a mix of organizations such as non-profits, NGOs, academic institutions, and sometimes other entities depending on program needs and any country- or partner-specific requirements. Because this is explicitly marked as continuation funding, eligibility may also be limited to current or past recipients or specific partners already working under related CDC/PEPFAR awards, though the summary alone does not spell that out.
In terms of what the program is about, the title and description emphasize a comprehensive approach that links HIV service delivery goals with broader health system strengthening in Mozambique. Under PEPFAR, this kind of work commonly includes improving the capacity of clinical and public health systems to prevent HIV transmission, diagnose HIV, link people to treatment, and support long-term viral suppression. The "health system strengthening" framing typically implies investment in areas like workforce development and mentorship, laboratory systems, supply chain and commodity management, health information systems, quality improvement, and governance and management systems that help programs perform reliably at scale. The word "comprehensive" also signals that the approach is meant to address multiple components of the HIV response in an integrated way rather than focusing narrowly on a single intervention.
Overall, the opportunity is a CDC-managed, PEPFAR-aligned cooperative agreement aimed at sustaining and expanding Mozambique's HIV response while reinforcing the foundational systems that make HIV programs effective and durable. The summary record provides the administrative identifiers, timing, and high-level intent, but the detailed technical requirements, allowable activities, and precise eligibility conditions would be found in the full funding announcement referenced by the opportunity number.
