Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity is a continuation cooperative agreement from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS-CDC), focused on strengthening health system leadership, governance, and quality improvement within the Ministry of Health (MOH) in the Kingdom of Swaziland under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). It sits in the health funding activity category and is tied to CFDA number 93.067, which is commonly associated with CDC global HIV/AIDS and related public health efforts supported through PEPFAR. The intent is not to launch a new competition, but to extend and support ongoing work already funded under the original award.
Eligibility is restricted to entities that previously received an award under the related funding announcement, "Support for Health System Strengthening of Leadership, Governance and Quality Improvement in the Ministry of Health (MOH) in the Kingdom of Swaziland under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)," identified as CDC-RFA-GH15-1584. In other words, this continuation announcement is only meant for the existing grantee(s) from that earlier award, rather than being open to new applicants. The eligible applicant category is listed as "Others," with clarification provided in the notice text indicating the limitation to prior awardees.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally means CDC expects to have substantial programmatic involvement in the work compared with a standard grant. While the announcement text provided does not list programmatic tasks or technical areas in detail, the title and context indicate that the work centers on reinforcing MOH capacity in leadership and governance, and improving quality improvement systems, which are foundational elements for stronger HIV service delivery and broader health system performance under PEPFAR-supported programming.
The continuation application process is handled through an Annual Performance Report (APR), which serves as the required continuation application. The CDC requires the grantee to submit the APR through Grants.gov no later than 120 days before the end of the current budget period. This emphasizes performance-based continuation, where ongoing funding is tied to reporting on progress and results, and submitting the required documentation within the specified timeline.
Administratively, the opportunity is listed as discretionary funding with one expected award. The award ceiling is $685,000. The opportunity number is CDC RFA GH15 1584CONT16. The posting date and creation date are both January 9, 2016, and the closing date is March 11, 2016 (with no difference between original and current closing dates shown). Overall, the notice functions as a structured mechanism for CDC to continue funding a previously selected partner to carry forward established leadership, governance, and quality improvement strengthening activities within Swaziland's Ministry of Health under PEPFAR.
