Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Improving Coordination and Leadership of HIV/AIDS Programs in Ethiopia under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)" is a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) funding announcement designed to strengthen how Ethiopia plans, leads, and coordinates its national HIV/AIDS response. The core purpose is to support Ethiopia's Federal Ministry of Health (FMoH) in its oversight role across national public health programs, with a clear emphasis on improving the coordination and implementation of comprehensive HIV/AIDS program activities. In practical terms, the opportunity is aimed at helping the ministry manage the HIV response more effectively at a national level, aligning stakeholders, guiding program execution, and ensuring that HIV-related activities are organized, consistent, and responsive to public health priorities.
This opportunity was issued by HHS-CDC-CGH (the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Center for Global Health) under Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA GH16-1615. It is categorized as discretionary funding and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, which generally indicates that CDC expects to have substantial involvement during the project period, such as collaborating on planning, monitoring, technical direction, or evaluation rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal engagement. The activity category is health, and it is tied to CFDA number 93.067, which is commonly associated with global HIV/AIDS initiatives under PEPFAR-related public health assistance.
The announcement anticipated a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1), signaling that CDC intended to fund one primary implementing partner to work closely with the FMoH on these national leadership and coordination functions. The maximum possible award amount listed is $3,000,000 (AwardCeiling: 3,000,000), which frames the upper budget limit for the supported work. While the eligibility field is listed as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the provided source excerpt does not include that additional eligibility text, so the exact set of eligible organization types cannot be confirmed from the excerpt alone. Typically, this kind of designation can include certain nontraditional applicants or specialized organizations depending on the notice, but the definitive eligibility would be found in the full funding announcement.
Key dates in the announcement show it was created and posted on February 7, 2016, and it closed on April 7, 2016 (with the original and current closing dates matching, indicating the deadline did not change). Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a targeted investment in national-level HIV program governance and performance in Ethiopia under PEPFAR, focused less on direct service delivery and more on strengthening the systems, leadership, and coordination needed to plan and implement comprehensive HIV/AIDS activities effectively across the country.
