Opportunity Summary:

This grant opportunity, listed as CDC RFA PS09 9127, is a discretionary health funding announcement from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) focused on improving tuberculosis (TB) prevention and control in resource-limited countries. The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the work as it is carried out, rather than simply issuing funds with minimal federal interaction. The announcement was posted on March 31, 2009, created on May 8, 2009, with a closing date shown as April 28, 2009 (the original closing date was May 29, 2009), and the estimated award timing was anticipated before September 30, 2009. The program is tied to CFDA number 93.116, which covers project grants and cooperative agreements for TB control programs.

The funding level is relatively small and targeted: the CDC anticipated making about one award, with an estimated total funding amount of approximately $160,000. The award ceiling is also listed as $160,000, with a floor of $0, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient would not be required to contribute additional non-federal funds as a condition of the award. Because only one award is expected and the eligible applicant pool is extremely narrow, this opportunity is essentially designed for a single, specific recipient rather than open competition among multiple organizations.

The sole eligible applicant is the International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease (IUATLD). The eligibility language makes clear that no other institutions, NGOs, universities, or government entities are eligible to apply under this particular announcement, even though the work described is meant to support national programs and partner organizations. In other words, IUATLD is positioned as the implementing partner that will then provide support outward to National TB Control Programs (NTPs), non-governmental organizations, and other relevant stakeholders working on TB.

The core purpose of the award is to strengthen global TB treatment and control efforts by enabling IUATLD to provide technical assistance and run training programs. In practical terms, this indicates a focus on capacity building rather than direct service delivery or commodity procurement. The activities implied by the description commonly include developing and delivering trainings for TB program staff, mentoring and advising national TB programs on evidence-based approaches, improving operational practices in TB care and prevention, and supporting coordination among partners involved in TB control. The emphasis on resource-limited countries signals that the work is intended to address settings where health systems may face constraints in staffing, infrastructure, diagnostics, drug supply management, and program monitoring, all of which can affect TB outcomes.

Administratively, the opportunity is managed through the CDC Procurement and Grants Office, and the announcement provides a contact route for applicants who cannot access the full funding announcement electronically. The contact listed is PGOTIM at 770-488-2700. Although the summary points to a fuller announcement for complete program details, the information provided indicates a narrowly targeted, single-recipient cooperative agreement meant to leverage IUATLDs expertise to improve the effectiveness of TB prevention and control programming by strengthening skills, systems, and technical performance across national and partner TB efforts worldwide.
