Opportunity Summary:
The Support to Teachers Colleges on Prevention of HIV/AIDS (STOP) opportunity is a USAID-funded cooperative agreement intended to support a three-year education program focused on HIV/AIDS prevention within teachers colleges in Ethiopia. Issued by USAID Ethiopia (Addis Ababa) under the authority of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 (as amended), the award is designed to fund an applicant that can carry out the program objectives and deliver the expected results described in the solicitation's Section C (Program Description). The selected recipient would be responsible for managing implementation and ensuring those objectives are achieved over the full period of performance.
This is a discretionary funding opportunity with the assistance instrument type listed as a cooperative agreement, which typically means USAID expects substantial involvement during implementation compared to a standard grant. The funding activity category is Education, and it is associated with CFDA 98.001 (USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas). USAID indicated an intention to provide approximately $1,800,000 total across the three-year period, subject to the availability of funds. The opportunity lists both an award ceiling and an award floor of $1,800,000, signaling that the agency anticipated making a single award at that approximate total level rather than a range of possible award sizes.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning the competition is open to any type of entity unless the full announcement includes additional clarifications or limits in the section labeled "Additional Information on Eligibility." The opportunity does not require cost sharing or matching, so applicants are not expected to contribute a specific percentage of non-federal resources as a condition of award, unless otherwise stated in the full program description or application instructions.
From a budget and cost standpoint, USAID emphasizes that it does not pay profit under assistance instruments (per 22 CFR 226.81). However, the award can cover reasonable, allocable, and allowable costs necessary to run the program, including both direct and indirect expenses, as long as they comply with the applicable cost principles. The announcement specifically references the relevant standards depending on organization type: 22 CFR 226; OMB Circular A-122 for nonprofit organizations; OMB Circular A-21 for universities; and FAR Part 31 for for-profit organizations. In practical terms, this means applicants should build budgets that are well-documented, necessary for the project, and compliant with U.S. government cost rules rather than including any fee or profit margin.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number 663-A-09-001, with an original and current closing date of November 13, 2008 (posted October 11, 2008), and an archive date of December 13, 2008. Questions or access issues were directed to the listed USAID contact in Addis Ababa: Getachew Wondimagegnehu, Contract Management Specialist, phone +251 011 5510088, email gwondimagegnehu@usaid.gov.
