Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity is a CDC cooperative agreement announcement focused on strengthening and coordinating HIV/AIDS prevention, care, and treatment services in Zanzibar, part of the United Republic of Tanzania, under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). The program is positioned as a health-sector coordination effort aimed at improving how Zanzibar organizes and delivers its overall response to the HIV epidemic, rather than funding a large number of separate projects. In practical terms, it is meant to support a single, central recipient that can align planning, implementation, and oversight across prevention, clinical care, and treatment activities so that services function as an integrated system and respond to local needs.
The announcement is identified as Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA PS09-979, with the title "Enhancement of HIV/AIDS Prevention, Care and Treatment Services in Zanzibar in the United Republic of Tanzania under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief." It falls under the discretionary funding category and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, which typically means CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the work through collaboration, technical guidance, and ongoing programmatic interaction, rather than simply issuing a grant and remaining hands-off. The activity category is Health, and the associated CFDA number is 93.067 (Global AIDS). There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated for applicants.
Funding is structured around approximately one award, reflecting the intention to designate a primary coordinating body rather than multiple implementers. The anticipated award size is up to $2,500,000 (award ceiling), with a minimum award level listed as $1,500,000 (award floor). While the synopsis notes approximately $2,500,000 available for the expected award, the total estimated funding listed in the source data is $12,500,000, which suggests the broader funding estimate may reflect multi-year support or an overall program projection, while the annual or initial budget for the single award sits within the $1.5M to $2.5M range. The estimated funding date is prior to September 30, 2009.
Eligibility is narrowly defined. The eligible applicant identified is the Zanzibar AIDS Control Program (ZACP), indicating this opportunity is essentially intended for the local government HIV program in Zanzibar to serve as the coordinating recipient. The listing also includes a general "Others (see text field...)" eligibility category, but the explicit eligibility information names ZACP, so the practical interpretation is that ZACP is the primary eligible entity for submission.
In terms of timing and submission details, the opportunity was posted March 30, 2009, with an original closing date of May 28, 2009, later extended to a current closing date of June 5, 2009. Applications were due by 5:00 pm Eastern Time on the closing date. The archive date is June 27, 2009, reflecting when the opportunity would be removed from active listings after the submission window closed. Additional details and the full program announcement were made available through Grants.gov, and applicants needing help accessing the announcement were directed to contact CDC's Procurement and Grants Office (PGO TIMS) by phone at 770-488-2700.
Overall, the core purpose of this cooperative agreement is to reinforce Zanzibar's coordinated health-sector HIV response under PEPFAR by supporting one principal awardee to organize and enhance the delivery of HIV prevention, care, and treatment services. The announcement emphasizes coordination as the central theme, with CDC playing an active partnership role consistent with a cooperative agreement model.
