Opportunity Summary:
Projecto de Saude Para Todos (Health for All, or HFA) is a USAID/Angola health grant opportunity designed to fund a single implementing partner to strengthen both community- and facility-based health services in Angola. The program is built around three priority areas: malaria, HIV/AIDS, and family planning and reproductive health (FP/RH). The central idea is not only to deliver and improve services on the ground, but also to build lasting capacity and stronger working relationships with municipal and provincial government authorities so that activities align with and reinforce Angola's national strategic plans in each of these health areas.
The opportunity is offered as a discretionary award using a Cooperative Agreement, which typically means USAID expects to remain actively involved in the project through ongoing collaboration, oversight, and technical engagement rather than simply providing funds with minimal interaction. The award is positioned as a comprehensive health intervention, combining direct service support with systems strengthening and capacity building. In practical terms, an implementing partner would be expected to help improve the quality, coverage, and coordination of malaria, HIV/AIDS, and FP/RH services across different levels of the health system, ensuring that communities can access services while facilities are better equipped and managed to provide effective care.
The stated overall objective ties directly to USAID/Angola's broader development priorities, specifically two complementary Development Objectives: improving the health status and well-being of the population, and strengthening the responsiveness of services to citizens' needs. This framing signals that success is not limited to disease-specific outputs (like more tests, treatments, or contraceptive uptake), but also includes improved local governance, better coordination with subnational authorities, and more citizen-centered health services. The emphasis on collaborative partnership with municipal and provincial authorities suggests a strong focus on sustainability, local ownership, and institutionalization of improved practices within government structures.
From an administrative and funding standpoint, the opportunity is identified as Funding Opportunity Number NFO RFA 654 16 000004 and falls under the Health funding activity category, with CFDA number 98.001. Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning it is open to a wide range of applicants (such as nonprofits, for-profits, and other qualified organizations), subject to any additional eligibility clarifications provided in the full notice. USAID anticipated making one award, with an award ceiling of $63,000,000, indicating a large, multi-component program intended to operate at meaningful scale rather than through multiple smaller grants.
Key dates included a creation date of August 8, 2016, and an original closing date of September 8, 2016. The issuing office is associated with the Agency for International Development and referenced as USAID-Pretoria in the source data, while the programmatic focus and implementation context are clearly centered on USAID/Angola and Angola's national health strategies. Overall, HFA is best understood as a major, integrated health systems and service delivery effort aimed at reducing the burden of malaria and HIV/AIDS, improving access to FP/RH, and strengthening subnational health governance so health services are more effective and more responsive to the people who rely on them.
