Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Conducting Public Health Research Activities in Uzbekistan" (Funding Opportunity Number RFA GH 15 003) is a CDC discretionary funding announcement offered through a cooperative agreement mechanism. It sits in the health funding activity category and is tied to CFDA 93.326, which focuses on protecting and improving health globally by strengthening public health capacities such as surveillance and epidemiologic research. The core purpose of the announcement is to support CDC's Global Disease Detection (GDD) Program work in Uzbekistan, specifically by strengthening local capacity to combat antimicrobial resistance. In practical terms, the funding is aimed at building and improving in-country public health research and related systems so Uzbekistan is better positioned to detect, understand, and respond to antimicrobial resistance threats.
The CDC anticipated making a single award under this announcement. The estimated total funding amount listed is $2,500,000, with an award ceiling of $500,000 and an award floor of $0. No cost sharing or matching is required, which means applicants are not expected to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award. Because the funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, the recipient should expect substantial involvement from CDC during the project period compared to a standard grant, typically in areas like technical guidance, coordination, and oversight aligned with the GDD program's objectives.
Eligibility is relatively broad but includes important details. The announcement indicates "Others" as eligible applicants with additional clarification stating that foreign organizations are eligible to apply.
