Opportunity Summary:

This grant opportunity, offered by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under PEPFAR, focuses on building up Mozambique's Field Epidemiology Laboratory Training Program (FELTP). The central goal is to help the Mozambique Ministry of Health (MoH) and the Faculty of Medicine at Eduardo Mondlane University (UEM) develop and strengthen a training program that grows the country's capacity in applied epidemiology and public health laboratory practice. In practical terms, the award is meant to support the people, tools, and day-to-day operational needs required to run a functioning FELTP that can train professionals who respond to outbreaks, improve surveillance, and strengthen public health systems, including those linked to HIV and AIDS priorities supported through PEPFAR.

A key part of the work is logistical support for implementing two-week short courses. That typically means the grantee would help plan and execute the training sessions end-to-end, including coordination with instructors and participants, organizing venues, materials, transportation, scheduling, and other operational details that make short courses run smoothly and consistently. The announcement also highlights providing logistical support to UEM as needed, suggesting the partner organization may be expected to assist the university with administrative or operational gaps that could otherwise slow down training delivery, especially during periods of program growth or expansion.

Beyond logistics, the opportunity expects substantial technical assistance to both the MoH and UEM. This includes support for curriculum and guideline development, which implies helping design training content, learning objectives, practical exercises, evaluation methods, and standardized guidance that ensures the program is aligned with Mozambique's public health needs and with FELTP-style competency-based training models. The mention of "some systems development" indicates the work may extend into strengthening the underlying structures that support training and field work, such as procedures for supervision and mentorship, data and reporting workflows, field placement coordination, monitoring and evaluation approaches, and other program management systems that help institutionalize the training program so it can operate sustainably over time.

The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which generally means the CDC anticipates an active partnership role rather than a hands-off grant. While the notice does not spell out specific deliverables in the excerpt provided, cooperative agreements usually involve ongoing technical collaboration, regular communication, and shared planning between the awardee and CDC program staff to ensure activities align with public health objectives and performance expectations.

Financially, the estimated total funding listed is $2,000,000, with an expected single award. The notice lists no cost sharing or matching requirement, lowering the barrier for applicants who might not be able to contribute non-federal funds. Award ceiling and floor are shown as $0 in the summary data, which often indicates that exact award amounts are determined through the application and negotiation process rather than being fixed in the listing fields.

Eligibility is broad and includes public and private nonprofit organizations, for-profit organizations, small/minority/women-owned businesses, universities and colleges, research institutions, hospitals, community and faith-based organizations, and government entities at state and local levels, among others. It also allows non-U.S. (non-domestic) entities to apply, which is notable for an international capacity-building program. The eligibility section also explains "bona fide agent" applications for state or local governments, requiring documentation if applying in that capacity.

Administratively, the opportunity was posted on February 18, 2010, with an original and current closing date of April 19, 2010, and an archive date of May 19, 2010, indicating it is an older, time-limited funding announcement rather than an open, ongoing program. The CFDA number associated with this opportunity is 93.067 (Global AIDS), tying it to PEPFAR and broader HIV/AIDS-related global health investments. For applicants or interested parties who had difficulty accessing the full announcement, the contact provided is the CDC PGO TIMS grants line at 770-488-2700, with a general email also referenced in the listing.
