Opportunity Summary:
This opportunity, titled "Developing professional training programs to increase capacity for effective global health response to humanitarian emergencies," is a continuation funding announcement from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS-CDC). It is issued under Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA GH15-162402CONT16 and is positioned in the health funding activity area (CFDA 93.067). The core purpose is to support the development and strengthening of professional training programs that build a more capable workforce for responding effectively to global health needs during humanitarian emergencies, where rapid, well-coordinated public health action can be critical.
The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the work as it is carried out, rather than simply providing funds with minimal federal engagement. As a continuation announcement, it is designed to extend or continue work under an existing initiative rather than launch a brand-new program from scratch. The listing does not specify an award ceiling (shown as 0), and the number of expected awards is not provided in the source data, so the announcement itself does not clearly state the maximum funding level per award or how many recipients CDC planned to support through this action.
Eligibility is described broadly as "Others," with a note indicating that additional clarification would be found in an "Additional Information on Eligibility" section in the full announcement. In practical terms, that language often signals that eligibility may include a range of nontraditional or specifically defined entities (for example, certain nonprofits, academic institutions, international organizations, or other qualifying groups), but the exact set of eligible applicants would depend on the full text of the notice.
Key dates in the source indicate the opportunity was created and posted on February 26, 2016, with both the original and current application closing date listed as May 1, 2016, suggesting there was no deadline extension reflected in the record. Overall, the announcement is focused on building training capacity for humanitarian emergency response in global health settings, using a continuation cooperative agreement structure under CDC leadership and oversight.
