Opportunity Summary:

This grant opportunity, titled "Developing Advanced Prevention, Health Systems and Strategic Information Systems in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief," is a CDC-funded cooperative agreement intended to strengthen Vietnam's national capacity to address HIV/AIDS through better prevention services, stronger health and social service systems, and improved strategic information for planning. It sits under the broader Global AIDS program (CFDA 93.067) and is framed as a targeted investment to help the Government of Vietnam build sustainable, in-country capability rather than relying on outside implementers.

The central goal is to support the Government of Vietnam, specifically the Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs (MOLISA), in improving services for populations considered especially vulnerable to HIV/AIDS. In practical terms, the announcement emphasizes two intertwined outcomes: first, enhancing MOLISA's ability to deliver or oversee higher-quality prevention and support services for these at-risk groups; and second, developing or strengthening information systems that capture reliable data about these populations and the services they receive. The intent behind the information system component is explicitly strategic: better data should lead to better planning, smarter resource allocation, and continuous program improvement based on evidence rather than assumptions.

Funding is relatively small and tightly focused: the CDC anticipated making approximately one award with an estimated total funding amount of about $315,000. The award ceiling is $315,000 and the award floor is $200,000, signaling that the project was expected to be a single, defined effort rather than a multi-site portfolio of grants. The mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means CDC expected to have substantial involvement during implementation, such as providing technical guidance, coordinating on performance expectations, and collaborating on monitoring and evaluation activities, rather than simply issuing funds with minimal interaction.

Eligibility is restricted to a single applicant: the Government of Vietnam, MOLISA. No other organizations, including NGOs, universities, or private entities, are eligible to apply directly under this announcement. There is also no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient was not required to contribute a set portion of funds or in-kind resources as a condition of the award, though programs like this often still assume significant in-country engagement and operational participation.

Key dates place the opportunity in 2009. The funding opportunity was posted on March 31, 2009, with an application closing date of May 29, 2009, and an archive date of June 28, 2009. The CDC estimated the award would be funded prior to September 30, 2009, aligning with the U.S. government fiscal year timeline. The responsible agency is the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, with administrative support through the CDC Procurement and Grants Office; a contact phone number (770-488-2700) is provided for applicants who had difficulty accessing the full announcement.

Overall, this announcement describes a highly targeted, government-to-government capacity-building award under PEPFAR. It focuses on strengthening MOLISA's role in reaching vulnerable groups with improved HIV/AIDS-related services and building the strategic information infrastructure needed to track needs, coverage, and program performance so Vietnam can plan more effectively and improve outcomes over time.
