Opportunity Summary:

The Cross Border Health Integrated Partnership Project (CB HIPP) is a USAID health funding opportunity issued by the USAID Mission in Kenya under the authority of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended. The solicitation requests applications from qualified organizations to manage and implement a cross-border, integrated health project as described in the full Request for Applications (RFA). In practical terms, the award is meant to support coordinated health interventions that operate across national boundaries in East Africa, where population movement and shared public health risks often require joint approaches rather than country-by-country responses.

This opportunity is offered as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement, which typically means USAID expects to have substantial involvement during implementation compared to a standard grant. Applicants should anticipate ongoing collaboration with USAID on technical direction, monitoring expectations, and key implementation decisions, consistent with how cooperative agreements are usually structured.

USAID anticipated making up to 10 awards under this announcement. The listed award ceiling and award floor are both $74,000,000, indicating the funding level is set at that amount for an award under the posted parameters, rather than providing a broad range. The opportunity includes a cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants would need to propose and document some level of non-federal contribution as part of their application, following the specific rules and thresholds described in the RFA.

Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning it is broadly open to any type of entity that otherwise meets USAID requirements, with the caveat that any additional eligibility clarifications would be contained in the official RFA text. The funding activity category is Health, and the overall focus is on implementing an integrated partnership model for cross-border health work, typically implying coordination among multiple stakeholders such as ministries of health, local and international implementing partners, and cross-border community or surveillance networks.

The notice was posted and created on April 16, 2014, with an original and current closing date of May 16, 2014. The opportunity was archived on June 15, 2014, which signals it is no longer open for applications, but the listing still provides useful reference information for understanding the program and its scale.

For prospective applicants who needed help accessing the full announcement at the time, USAID provided a point of contact: Ali Ali, Regional Acquisition Assistance Specialist at USAID Kenya, reachable by phone at +254 20 8622451.
