Opportunity Summary:

This funding opportunity, titled "Establishment of a Strategic Partnership to Strengthen the South African National AIDS Council under the Presidents Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)," is a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) discretionary grant announcement intended to reinforce South Africa's national coordination of the HIV and AIDS and tuberculosis (TB) response. The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the CDC expects to remain substantially involved during implementation rather than simply providing funds and stepping back. The central aim is to build and strengthen the institutional capacity of the South African National AIDS Council (SANAC) so it can more effectively lead a coordinated national response and support implementation of the Country Coordinating Mechanism (CCM), a multi-stakeholder coordination platform commonly associated with aligning national planning, oversight, and partner engagement for major health programs.

The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA GH13 1338 and falls within the health funding activity category. The associated CFDA number is 93.067, labeled "Global AIDS," indicating alignment with broader U.S. government global HIV priorities under PEPFAR. The announcement was posted on February 26, 2013, created on April 11, 2013, and closed on April 19, 2013, with an archive date of May 19, 2013. In practical terms, this means it was a time-limited competition with a short application window, and it is now archived rather than open for new applications.

Funding details show an estimated total funding amount of $10,000,000, with an award ceiling of $2,000,000 and an award floor of $0. The FOA anticipated a single award ("ExpectedAwards: 1"), suggesting the CDC intended to support one primary recipient to serve as the key strategic partner for this capacity-building work. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award. Because the instrument is a cooperative agreement and the work is centered on national coordination functions, the CDC likely expected close collaboration on planning, performance monitoring, and alignment with national strategies and PEPFAR objectives.

Eligibility is described in a targeted way. While the general eligibility category is listed as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the provided eligibility information specifically references SANAC, noting it was established by the South African Cabinet under the leadership of the President of South Africa, with Cabinet and Deputy Ministers representing the executive branch of government. This language indicates the FOA is oriented toward SANAC as the key national coordinating body and implies that eligibility was either limited to SANAC or closely tied to work conducted in direct partnership with SANAC's mandate and structures. The core expectation is that the funded partnership would enhance SANAC's ability to convene stakeholders, align partners around national plans, strengthen governance and coordination mechanisms, and bolster the systems needed to guide and track progress across HIV, AIDS, and TB efforts nationally, including the CCM-related functions mentioned in the purpose statement.

The administering agency is the CDC. For technical access issues with the full announcement, the listed point of contact is the CDC Procurement and Grants Office, Technical Information Management Section (TIMS), reachable by phone at 770-488-2700 or by email at pgotim@cdc.gov.
