Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Supporting National HIV/AIDS Evaluation Systems in the Republic of Uganda under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)," was issued by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as a discretionary cooperative agreement (Funding Opportunity Number: CDC-RFA-PS10-1019; CFDA: 93.067 Global AIDS). The core aim is to strengthen PEPFAR-supported public health evaluation work in Uganda by ensuring evaluation activities produce high-quality, timely results that can be used for program improvement and decision-making. Rather than primarily funding direct service delivery, the announcement centers on improving how evaluations are planned, executed, analyzed, and reported, with an emphasis on meeting standards and timelines expected under PEPFAR.
A central feature of the program is the provision of technical assistance (TA) to evaluation implementing teams. The selected grantee is expected to function as a technical partner that supports multiple evaluations by filling key expertise gaps, boosting execution quality, and helping implementing partners complete tasks more effectively. This TA role is intentionally flexible: the grantee may directly perform specialized tasks when needed, or it may focus on enabling and mentoring implementing partners so they can carry out those tasks themselves. In practice, this means the award supports hands-on, practical support that improves evaluation performance in real time, not just high-level guidance.
The announcement describes a broad menu of technical assistance activities that may be needed across evaluation projects. These include facilitating meetings and coordination, delivering training, strengthening data management practices, and implementing quality assurance processes to ensure evaluations are conducted correctly and consistently. A specific priority is adherence to multi-country standardized protocols, which reflects the need for evaluations in Uganda to align with PEPFAR and CDC methods used across countries so results are comparable and credible. The TA scope can also extend into analytic and product-oriented work such as data analysis, conducting special sub-studies when a deeper dive is required, and producing strong written outputs such as evaluation reports. Overall, the CDC is signaling that it wants evaluations that are methodologically sound, well-documented, and translated into clear deliverables.
Capacity building is another explicit expectation. Where appropriate, applicants are expected to incorporate activities that build local capability to carry out research and evaluation in the future. That can include training, mentoring, development of standard operating procedures, improvements in data systems, and strengthening of institutional processes so that Ugandan partners can increasingly lead evaluation work over time. The intent is not only to improve the immediate round of PEPFAR evaluations, but also to leave behind stronger in-country evaluation capacity that persists beyond the period of performance.
The FOA allows applicants to apply either as a single organization or as a consortium, and it also encourages the use of subcontracts to specialized partners when needed to fully cover the range of technical skills described. This is meant to make it feasible to assemble the required mix of expertise (for example, epidemiology, biostatistics, data systems, qualitative methods, implementation science, training, and scientific writing) under one coordinated award structure.
In terms of scale and competition, the CDC anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an estimated total funding amount of $15,000,000. The funding parameters list an award ceiling of $3,000,000 and a floor of $500,000, indicating the CDC expected substantial but bounded annual or project-period budgeting depending on the final cooperative agreement structure. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which reduces the barrier for organizations that do not have large pools of unrestricted funds.
Eligibility was broad and includes public and private nonprofit organizations, for-profit entities, small/minority/women-owned businesses, universities and colleges, research institutions, hospitals, community-based and faith-based organizations, U.S. state and local governments (and bona fide agents), and non-U.S. (non-domestic) entities. The FOA also includes various tribal entities and U.S. territories as eligible applicants, reflecting standard CDC eligibility language. Applicants proposing to apply as a bona fide agent for a state or local government needed documentation (a letter confirming that status) submitted with the application package.
Key administrative details include a posted date of February 18, 2010, with an original and current closing date of April 19, 2010, and an archive date of May 19, 2010. The CDC listed a grants office contact for assistance accessing the announcement, indicating the opportunity was managed through CDC's standard grants infrastructure.
