Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Strengthening the Coordination Role of the Ministry Responsible for the Fight Against AIDS in Cote dIvoire under the President s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)," is a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) funding action designed to bolster the national leadership and coordination function of the ministry in Cote dIvoire that oversees the fight against HIV/AIDS. The overall intent is not simply to fund direct service delivery, but to strengthen the government coordination backbone that helps align partners, consolidate information, and turn evidence into decisions and advocacy. The award is framed within PEPFAR, meaning it supports the broader U.S. government effort to control the HIV epidemic through strategic investments in planning, coordination, and accountable use of data.
The core purpose is capacity building in three tightly connected areas. First, the ministry would be supported to expand communication and advocacy with the wide range of actors involved in HIV/AIDS work, including donors, international and bilateral partners, NGOs, and other government ministries. In practice, this type of support typically focuses on improving how stakeholders share plans and results, reducing duplication, and ensuring that national priorities and policy direction are clearly communicated. It also implies strengthening the ministry s ability to advocate effectively, both inside the country and in international forums, using coherent messages backed by evidence.
Second, the opportunity targets the ministry s ability to collect, organize, and disseminate essential HIV/AIDS data coming from both civil society and the public sector. This emphasis reflects a common challenge in national HIV responses: information may exist across many implementing organizations and government programs, but it is often fragmented, inconsistent, or difficult to access in a usable form. The grant s focus suggests building systems and processes for gathering multi-source data, standardizing it where possible, and packaging it so it can be shared with decision makers and partners in a timely way.
Third, the announcement highlights using this multi sector data for effective decision making and for national and international advocacy. This goes beyond data collection into data use: turning information into actionable insights for strategy, policy, and resource allocation, and using credible evidence to justify priorities and mobilize support. It also signals an intent to strengthen the ministry s role as a central hub for HIV/AIDS intelligence and coordination, enabling it to speak with authority about the epidemic and the response, and to guide stakeholders toward the most impactful interventions.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is listed as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. A cooperative agreement generally means CDC expects substantial involvement during implementation, such as providing technical guidance, collaborating on work planning, and monitoring progress. The activity category is health, and the associated CFDA number is 93.067 (Global AIDS), aligning it clearly with U.S. government HIV/AIDS assistance.
The funding profile indicates an estimated total funding amount of $3,000,000 with an expectation of a single award. No cost sharing or matching requirement is listed. The award ceiling and floor are shown as 0 in the record, which usually indicates those values were not specified in the summary fields even though total estimated funding is provided. Key dates included a posted date of January 21, 2011, with an original closing date of March 21, 2011 and a current closing date of March 17, 2011, and an archive date of April 20, 2011, placing the opportunity firmly in the 2011 funding cycle.
A notable feature of this listing is that it explicitly states it is not a request for applications. Instead, it is described as a public notice of CDC s intention to fund the project activities described in the full announcement without full and open competition. That language typically means the agency planned to make an award through a limited or noncompetitive process, often because a specific entity was identified as uniquely positioned to carry out the work or because of continuity needs. The eligible applicants field is broadly labeled "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," but the noncompetitive notice effectively signals that this was not a standard open competition where multiple applicants would submit proposals.
For access and administrative support, the listing points readers to the "Full Announcement" section (with a note that the provided link is not active) and provides a contact point at the CDC Procurement and Grants Office (PGO), Technical Information Management Section (TIMS), with a phone number for assistance in accessing the full announcement electronically.
