Opportunity Summary:

This funding opportunity (CDC RFA GH13-1314) is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cooperative agreement under the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) focused on Ethiopia. The overarching purpose is to strengthen public health practices and improve service delivery in the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, with a specific emphasis on HIV, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and tuberculosis (TB). In line with how PEPFAR operates, the award is meant to support a country-tailored program designed in coordination with the Government of Ethiopia and other key partners, ensuring that CDC-supported activities align with Ethiopia's national strategies and the broader partnership framework.

The announcement sits within CDC's health funding activity category and is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the program beyond standard grant oversight. In practical terms, this kind of mechanism is usually used when the funder anticipates an active technical role, close collaboration on planning and implementation, ongoing performance monitoring, and regular coordination with national stakeholders. The program description highlights that CDC, under the leadership of the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator, works with host countries to assess country needs and then design a customized package of assistance that fits local strategic plans. For applicants, that implies proposed work should be tightly linked to demonstrated needs in Ethiopia and framed in a way that complements and strengthens existing national systems rather than creating parallel structures.

Financially, CDC anticipated making a single award under this opportunity, with an estimated total funding amount of $10.5 million. The listed award ceiling is $2.5 million, and the award floor is $0 (which generally indicates that CDC did not specify a minimum request size and may consider a range of budgets depending on the proposed scope and merit). There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which reduces financial barriers for applicants and indicates CDC intended to fully fund the approved program costs within the awarded budget. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 93.067, labeled as Global AIDS, which signals the funding is part of the U.S. Government's global HIV/AIDS assistance portfolio.

Eligibility is broad and includes a wide range of organizational types, spanning nonprofit and for-profit entities, academic institutions, research organizations, hospitals, community-based and faith-based organizations, tribal governments and tribal health entities, and U.S. state/local governmental bodies and their bona fide agents. The eligibility list also explicitly includes non-U.S. (non-domestic) entities, which is especially relevant for an opportunity focused on Ethiopia because it allows Ethiopian or other international organizations to apply directly, depending on the additional eligibility conditions referenced in the full announcement. The diversity of eligible applicants suggests the program could be implemented by organizations with different strengths, such as clinical service delivery, laboratory and surveillance systems, training and workforce development, implementation science, or community outreach and linkage-to-care.

Key timing details show the opportunity was posted on January 28, 2013, with an original and final application closing date of April 8, 2013, and an archive date of May 8, 2013. While this specific announcement is archived and no longer open, the details still provide a clear snapshot of the type of CDC/PEPFAR investment being sought at the time: a coordinated effort to improve the quality, reach, and effectiveness of HIV, STI, and TB public health programs in Ethiopia through strengthened practices and service delivery, implemented in close collaboration with CDC and aligned with national priorities.

For applicants needing assistance accessing the full announcement at the time, CDC directed inquiries to the CDC Procurement and Grants Office Technical Information Management unit, reachable by phone at (770) 488-2700 or via email at pgotim@cdc.gov.
