Opportunity Summary:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), through its Procurement and Grants Office, released a discretionary funding opportunity under the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) focused on HIV prevention, care, and treatment services in the Amhara Region of Ethiopia. The program is titled "Prevention in Rural and Urban Hotspots for Most at Risk Populations (MARPs) including Students, Mobile Merchants, Commercial Sex Workers, and Daily Laborers in Amhara Region of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief" and is issued as a cooperative agreement, meaning the CDC would expect to have substantial involvement with the recipient in carrying out funded activities rather than operating strictly as a hands-off funder.
The central aim of the opportunity is to increase access to high-quality HIV prevention, care, and treatment services for populations considered most at risk, along with their partners, in specifically identified rural and urban "hotspots." These hotspots are located within selected woredas and zones in the Amhara Region, indicating a geographically targeted approach intended to concentrate resources where transmission risk and service gaps are likely to be highest. The opportunity explicitly names priority groups including students, mobile merchants, commercial sex workers, and daily laborers, reflecting an emphasis on people whose mobility, working conditions, social vulnerability, or exposure patterns can elevate HIV risk and create barriers to consistent prevention and care.
Funding was structured to support approximately one award, with an award ceiling and floor both listed at $1,000,000, signaling an intent to make a single, fixed-size award rather than multiple smaller awards. While the notice states that approximately $1,000,000 would be available for the expected award, the broader listing also references an estimated total funding amount of $5,000,000, which may reflect overall program funding across related initiatives or multi-year planning totals as recorded in the source system. The program falls under CFDA number 93.067 (Global AIDS), and it does not require cost sharing or matching contributions from the applicant.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning any type of entity could apply as long as it met any conditions described in the full announcement. The opportunity was posted on March 31, 2009, with an application deadline of May 28, 2009, due by 5:00 pm Eastern Time. The anticipated award timing was stated as prior to September 30, 2009, aligning with the U.S. federal fiscal year end and suggesting the program was designed to move relatively quickly from application to award and implementation.
For applicants and interested parties, the official posting directs users to Grants.gov for full program details and requirements. Assistance for accessing the full announcement was offered through CDC PGO TIMS at 770-488-2700, with a general email contact listed but not fully shown in the provided text. Overall, this opportunity reflects a targeted PEPFAR-supported strategy to expand and improve HIV service delivery for high-risk and hard-to-reach groups in defined hotspot areas of Amhara, with a single cooperative agreement intended to drive focused, measurable impact.
