Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Program Expansion Supplement: Reducing New HIV Infections, Strengthening Health and Strategic Information Systems, Capacity Building and Increasing Access to Quality HIV/AIDS Services through Support Programs Conducted by the Government of Botswana under PEPFAR," is a U.S. government funding announcement focused on strengthening Botswana's national HIV response under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). The intent is to support and expand ongoing Government of Botswana-led programs that aim to lower the number of new HIV infections while also improving the systems and workforce needed to sustain high-quality HIV prevention, treatment, and care services over time.
The funding is offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), specifically CDC's Center for Global Health. It is categorized as discretionary funding and will be issued as a cooperative agreement, meaning the CDC is expected to have substantial involvement in the work beyond simply providing funds. In practice, cooperative agreements commonly involve close technical collaboration, shared planning, monitoring, and performance oversight between the recipient and CDC, particularly for complex public health programs tied to national strategies and PEPFAR goals.
The program emphasis is broad but clearly anchored in four connected priorities. First, it supports efforts to reduce new HIV infections, which generally includes strengthening prevention approaches and improving the reach and effectiveness of services that reduce transmission. Second, it prioritizes strengthening health systems and strategic information systems, which refers to the data, surveillance, monitoring, and program management infrastructure needed to track the epidemic, target interventions, and measure results. Third, it includes capacity building, indicating a focus on developing skills, staffing, and institutional capabilities within Botswana's implementing structures so programs can be sustained and improved locally. Fourth, it aims to increase access to quality HIV/AIDS services, highlighting improvements not only in availability and coverage but also in service quality, consistency, and outcomes across the HIV care continuum.
Administratively, the opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number "CDC RFA GH11 11970401SUPP16" and is associated with CFDA number 93.067, a CDC global health assistance listing that frequently covers international HIV and related public health work. The announcement was created on July 29, 2016, with an original application deadline of September 27, 2016. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date, which is a standard federal submission requirement.
The anticipated award structure is relatively focused: CDC expected to make one award, with an award ceiling of $425,000. The fact that there is a single expected award and that the announcement is labeled as a "program expansion supplement" suggests it was designed to add resources to an existing program or partnership rather than launch an entirely new multi-recipient competition. Eligibility is listed as "Others," with additional clarification referenced in the full opportunity text, which typically means the applicant pool could be limited to certain types of entities or to a current recipient meeting specific conditions, depending on CDC's supplemental funding rules and the program's existing cooperative agreement framework.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as targeted, additive support to help Botswana further reduce HIV transmission and improve the performance and sustainability of HIV services and the underlying information and health systems. It aligns with typical PEPFAR objectives by combining direct service impact (prevention and access to quality care) with the behind-the-scenes infrastructure (strategic information systems and capacity building) that enables a national response to be data-driven, accountable, and durable.
