Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Expanding Comprehensive HIV Prevention Services for Injection Drug Users and Other Most At Risk Populations and Maintaining Services at Muhimbili Hospital in the United Republic of Tanzania under the Presidents Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)," is a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cooperative agreement focused on strengthening HIV prevention and related services in Tanzania. It sits under PEPFAR and is framed around CDC's role, working under the direction of the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator, to collaborate with national governments and partners to assess country-specific needs and implement programs that align with the host nation's strategic plan and partnership framework. In practical terms, the opportunity is intended to support targeted, comprehensive HIV prevention efforts for injection drug users and other populations considered most at risk, while also maintaining key services at Muhimbili Hospital, a major referral hospital in Tanzania that plays an important role in clinical care and HIV-related service delivery.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the funded project compared with a standard grant. The opportunity is categorized as "Mandatory" and falls under the health funding activity category. The total estimated funding amount is USD 15,000,000, with an award ceiling of USD 3,000,000, and the CDC anticipated making one award. The CFDA number listed is 93.067 (Global AIDS), tying it directly to U.S. government global HIV/AIDS programming streams. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to provide a specific financial contribution as a condition of eligibility.
The eligible applicant pool is broad and includes U.S. and non-U.S. entities. Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status, for-profit organizations (other than small business), and various business categories including small, minority-owned, and women-owned businesses. Academic and research entities such as universities, colleges, and research institutions are eligible, as are hospitals, community-based organizations, and faith-based organizations. Governmental eligibility is also extensive, spanning federally or state recognized American Indian/Alaska Native tribal governments and related tribal organizations and health entities, along with state and local governments and their bona fide agents. Non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities are explicitly included, which is particularly relevant for implementation partners based in Tanzania or regional organizations with local operational capacity. For those applying as a bona fide agent of a state or local government, the announcement specifies that a legal, binding agreement documenting that status must be submitted as part of the application package through Grants.gov.
From a timeline perspective, the funding opportunity was posted and created on February 14, 2012. The original and current closing date for applications was April 16, 2012, and the opportunity was archived on May 16, 2012, indicating that it was a time-limited solicitation with a defined submission window. While the notice does not provide programmatic detail on specific interventions, the title and the brief description clearly communicate the core priorities: expanding comprehensive HIV prevention services for injection drug users and other high-risk populations and ensuring continuity of services at Muhimbili Hospital. These priorities align with common PEPFAR programming approaches that emphasize a mix of biomedical, behavioral, and structural prevention strategies tailored to epidemiologic realities and implemented in coordination with national HIV strategies.
