- With its headquarters in Geneva, the UNAIDS Secretariat works on the ground in more than 80 countries. UNAIDS primary mandate is to provide technical support to assist in the implementation of national AIDS programs. Usually, this technical support is in the form of programmatic expertise but also increasingly it involves helping countries to plan ahead and predict what support they are going to need for different aspects of their AIDS responses. In many PEPFAR supported countries, UNAIDS provides critical leadership and is a well regarded multilateral partner in the HIV response. As an innovative United Nations joint venture, UNAIDS is the only multilateral organization qualified to conduct these activities with CDC and has demonstrated expertise in providing technical support in these areas through previous cooperative agreements with CDC. UNAIDS is unique as a United Nations and multilateral organization with the necessary international capacity and global influence to focus on strategic information support and public health capacity building. There is no other such organization with the same mandate, authority or scope of responsibility that could accomplish the tasks described in this memorandum.

Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA PS10-10157) was issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as a discretionary cooperative agreement under CFDA 93.067 (Global AIDS). Its core aim is to strengthen public health capacity and improve strategic information systems in countries supported by the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), specifically by partnering with the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS). In practical terms, the funding is meant to support technical assistance and capacity development that helps countries run stronger national HIV/AIDS responses, with a particular focus on the systems that generate, manage, and use data for decision-making.
The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means CDC expects to be actively involved in the work rather than simply providing funds and stepping back. The announcement anticipates a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $2,000,000 and an award ceiling of $2,000,000. The award floor is listed as $75,000, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity was posted March 2, 2010, created April 20, 2010, and ultimately closed May 14, 2010 (with the original closing date noted as April 26, 2010). The archive date is June 13, 2010.
Eligibility is intentionally narrow. Although the general eligibility category is labeled "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the detailed eligibility language makes clear that UNAIDS is the intended and uniquely qualified partner. The rationale provided is that UNAIDS, headquartered in Geneva and operating in more than 80 countries, has the primary mandate to deliver technical support for national AIDS programs. The announcement emphasizes that UNAIDS support goes beyond general program expertise and increasingly includes helping countries plan ahead, anticipate needs, and organize the assistance required across different components of their HIV responses. In many PEPFAR-supported settings, UNAIDS is described as a critical leader and a well-regarded multilateral partner, with the international reach, influence, and on-the-ground presence needed to carry out strategic information support and public health capacity building at scale.
The program description highlights why this work matters: strong strategic information systems are central to an effective HIV response because they enable countries to track the epidemic, monitor program coverage and quality, forecast and plan resources, and use evidence to target interventions. By funding UNAIDS to provide technical and capacity development support, CDC aims to help PEPFAR-supported countries improve the way they collect and analyze HIV-related data and strengthen the public health institutions and workforce that manage those systems. The announcement also notes that UNAIDS has already demonstrated expertise in these areas through previous cooperative agreements with CDC, and it asserts that no other multilateral organization has the same mandate, authority, or scope to accomplish the specific tasks contemplated.
