Opportunity Summary:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), through its Procurement and Grants Office, released a discretionary funding opportunity focused on strengthening public health evaluation work in the Republic of Tanzania under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). The program announcement is titled "Research Technical Assistance for Public Health Evaluation in the Republic of Tanzania under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief," and it is issued as a cooperative agreement, meaning the CDC would expect substantial involvement with awardees during implementation rather than simply providing funds with minimal interaction. The overall intent is to improve the quality, rigor, and timeliness of evaluation-related outputs that support PEPFAR programming, which typically includes monitoring, assessment of interventions, and evidence generation to guide HIV/AIDS-related public health decision-making.
Funding for the opportunity was structured to support roughly three awards. The award amounts were set with a floor of 200,000 and a ceiling of 1,000,000 per award, and the notice indicated that approximately 1,000,000 would be available to fund about three awards. The source record also lists an estimated total funding of 5,000,000, which suggests the funding could span multiple budget periods, options, or years depending on the final cooperative agreement structure and CDC program decisions. No cost sharing or matching was required, lowering the barrier for applicants that might not have additional funds to contribute.
Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning the competition was generally open to any type of entity (for example, academic institutions, non-profits, for-profits, and other organizations), subject to any clarifications that might have been included in the full announcement text. The funding activity category was health, and the opportunity is associated with CFDA number 93.067, Global AIDS, reflecting its alignment with PEPFAR-supported HIV/AIDS efforts.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number CDC-RFA-PS09-978. The opportunity was posted on March 30, 2009, with an application deadline of May 28, 2009, due by 5:00 pm Eastern Time. The archive date was June 27, 2009. The estimated award/funding decision timeframe was listed as prior to September 30, 2009, which aligned with typical federal fiscal year timing and suggests CDC intended to make awards before the end of the fiscal year.
In practical terms, the work supported by this cooperative agreement was aimed at providing research and technical assistance capacity to help PEPFAR evaluation activities in Tanzania run more effectively and produce strong deliverables on schedule. While the short description does not list specific required activities, opportunities of this type commonly cover support for evaluation design, data quality improvements, analytic methods, implementation of evaluation protocols, capacity building for local partners, and translating evaluation findings into usable products for program improvement and accountability.
Applicants were directed to consult the full announcement for complete program details via Grants.gov. For help accessing the announcement, CDC provided a contact point through PGO TIMS at 770-488-2700 and a general email contact (not fully shown in the excerpt).
