Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Support for HIV Surveillance Among Most At Risk Populations in the Russian Federation under the President s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)," was a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cooperative agreement aimed at improving how HIV is tracked and understood in the Russian Federation, especially among groups considered most at risk populations (MARPs). The central goal was to strengthen the national HIV surveillance system by expanding HIV bio behavioral sentinel surveys and by building lasting in-country capacity to collect, process, analyze, interpret, and actually use surveillance data to shape a stronger public health response. In practical terms, the program focused not only on gathering better information, but also on making sure Russian national and regional institutions could manage the full surveillance cycle themselves and translate findings into decisions and interventions that match the realities of the epidemic.
The work envisioned under the program centered on developing and implementing HIV bio behavioral surveys among MARPs in the regions most affected by HIV. These surveys are designed to combine biological measures (such as HIV testing) with behavioral and contextual information (such as risk behaviors, access to services, and prevention practices). The emphasis on sentinel surveys reflects an intent to monitor trends over time in a consistent way, so that changes in HIV prevalence and risk patterns can be detected and the future course of the epidemic can be better anticipated. Beyond data collection, the opportunity explicitly stressed advocacy and practical support to ensure that results from these surveys are used for public health decision-making, rather than sitting unused in reports. Capacity building was a major theme throughout, including strengthening the skills of national and regional bodies in data collection methods, data quality procedures, analysis, interpretation, and use of findings for planning and response.
Administratively, the opportunity was issued as a discretionary funding opportunity with a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, indicating substantial programmatic involvement or partnership with CDC rather than a hands-off grant model. The activity category was health, and the CFDA number associated with the opportunity was 93.067 (Global AIDS). The announcement anticipated a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1), with an estimated total funding amount of 2,500,000. The award ceiling was listed as 900,000 and the award floor as 0, and there was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which can lower barriers for organizations that do not have significant unrestricted funds to contribute.
The opportunity timeline shows it was posted on Feb 22, 2011, with creation noted on Apr 1, 2011. The original and current closing dates were both Apr 22, 2011, and the archive date was May 22, 2011, meaning the competition is long closed and is included as a historical funding notice. The sponsoring agency was the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement were directed to the CDC Procurement and Grants Office (PGO), Technical Information Management Section (TIMS), with a phone contact provided (770 488 2700).
Eligibility was broad and included many organization types, reflecting a desire to draw on public health, research, and community implementation expertise. Eligible applicants included nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in those specific nonprofit categories), for-profit organizations other than small businesses, small businesses including small, minority, and women-owned businesses, universities and colleges (both public and private), research institutions, hospitals, community-based organizations, and faith-based organizations. Government entities were also eligible, including state and local governments, city or township governments, county governments, special district governments, and public and state-controlled institutions of higher education. Tribal governments (federally recognized or state recognized American Indian/Alaska Native tribal governments) were listed, as were non-U.S. (non-domestic) entities. The notice also allowed applications from bona fide agents acting on behalf of state or local governments, with the requirement that a letter from the relevant government be provided as documentation when submitting through grants.gov.
Overall, the opportunity was designed to help Russia improve the quality, reach, and usefulness of HIV surveillance among populations at highest risk by pairing expanded bio behavioral sentinel survey implementation with deep capacity building in surveillance operations and data use. The intended end result was a more complete and responsive national and regional public health system capable of tracking the epidemic more accurately and using evidence from MARP-focused surveillance to inform policy, resource allocation, and targeted HIV prevention and care strategies.
