Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity (CDC RFA PS10-10129) is a discretionary cooperative agreement from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). Its central purpose is to strengthen Angola's public health infrastructure by improving Strategic Information (SI), Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E), and broader Health Systems Strengthening (HSS) capabilities within the Republic of Angola's Ministry of Health (MOH). In practical terms, the grant is designed to help Angola build the systems, workforce skills, and institutional routines needed to generate reliable public health data, analyze it, and use it for decision-making, especially for HIV/AIDS programming supported by PEPFAR.
The main implementation vehicle described in the announcement is the Angola Field Epidemiology and Laboratory Training Program (A-FELTP). The A-FELTP model focuses on developing a trained cadre of public health professionals who can investigate outbreaks, improve surveillance, strengthen laboratory systems, and translate data into actionable guidance for public health leaders. By emphasizing both epidemiology and laboratory training, the program aims to improve the quality, timeliness, and usefulness of national health information. The opportunity also highlights sustainability, meaning the intent is not just to run short-term trainings, but to help establish linked systems and infrastructure that remain functional and locally managed over time.
The eligible applicant information underscores the Ministry of Health's central role and legal mandate in Angola to regulate and implement health policy, issue technical guidelines, and provide oversight for planning, evaluation, and inspection. The MOH is positioned as the primary entity responsible for developing and implementing the National Strategic Plan to build a public health workforce capable of responding to HIV/AIDS and related public health priorities. The announcement frames the A-FELTP as a mechanism to enhance retention of health care providers and increase the number of qualified, professionally trained workers, which ties workforce development directly to improved program performance and stronger national capacity.
Funding details indicate an estimated total funding level of $2,000,000, with an expectation of one award. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement noted. The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which generally means CDC anticipates substantial involvement with the recipient in areas such as technical direction, collaboration, and oversight compared to a standard grant. The program is listed under CFDA number 93.067 (Global AIDS), aligning it clearly with PEPFAR and HIV/AIDS-related global health objectives. Award ceiling and floor are both listed as 0 in the source data, which typically signals that specific per-award limits were not stated in that particular field rather than implying no funding will be provided.
The timeline provided shows the opportunity was posted on February 11, 2010, with an original closing date of April 12, 2010, later extended to April 30, 2010. The archive date is May 12, 2010, indicating it is a past opportunity, but the details still describe the program design and intent: strengthening SI, laboratories, and workforce capacity through a national FELTP platform.
