Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number CDC-RFA-PS10-1062) is a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cooperative agreement under PEPFAR focused on strengthening infection prevention and control in Tanzania. The core aim is to provide hands-on technical assistance to Tanzania's Ministry of Health and Social Welfare (MOHSW) to review existing national practices, update them where needed, and then institutionalize standard procedures for infection prevention and control (IPC) and injection safety (IS). The work is intended to cover all health facilities across both mainland Tanzania and Zanzibar, which signals a nationwide scope rather than a small pilot limited to a few sites.
The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding in the health area and is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the CDC would likely be more actively involved than in a typical grant. In practical terms, that usually implies ongoing collaboration with the awardee around planning, technical direction, implementation support, and monitoring expectations, especially because the project is framed as technical assistance to a national ministry and tied to PEPFAR priorities. Since the activity is connected to the CFDA number 93.067 (Global AIDS), the broader context is HIV-related program strengthening and patient and workforce safety, where strong IPC and safe injection practices are essential to preventing healthcare-associated infections and reducing risks linked to bloodborne pathogens.
Funding for the announcement was substantial overall, with an estimated total of $8,000,000, but only one award was expected. The award size parameters were clearly defined: an award ceiling of $1,500,000 and an award floor of $475,000, suggesting flexibility depending on the proposed approach, staffing, and breadth of activities while still signaling the CDC's expectations about a realistic budget range for the technical assistance package. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowers barriers for applicants and places the emphasis on program design, technical competence, and the ability to partner effectively with MOHSW and facilities across the country.
Eligibility was broad and inclusive. Applicants could include public and private nonprofit organizations, for-profit organizations (including small, minority-, and women-owned businesses), universities and colleges, research institutions, hospitals, community-based and faith-based organizations, as well as U.S. state and local governments and their bona fide agents. The eligibility list also included tribal organizations and entities, and importantly it allowed non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities to apply, which often matters for programs centered outside the United States. For applicants applying as a bona fide agent of a state or local government, documentation in the form of a letter confirming that status was required as part of the submission.
The timeline reflects a standard federal competitive cycle from that period. The opportunity was posted and created on February 18, 2010, with an original and final closing date of April 19, 2010, and it was later archived on May 19, 2010. The administering agency was the CDC, and applicants needing help accessing the full announcement were directed to contact PGO TIMS Grants at 770-488-2700 via a general email channel (as referenced in the notice). Overall, the announcement describes a nationwide technical assistance effort meant to embed consistent IPC and injection safety procedures across Tanzania's health system, aligning facility-level practice with updated national standards and making those standards routine and sustainable rather than one-time guidance.
