Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number CDC-RFA-GH13-1353) is a CDC cooperative agreement under PEPFAR focused on providing technical assistance to strengthen HIV prevention, care, and treatment services in the Republic of Cote d'Ivoire. The program sits under the broader PEPFAR model led by the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator, where CDC collaborates with host-country governments and other partners to assess local needs and then tailor support to fit within the country’s own national HIV strategy and partnership framework. In practical terms, the award is meant to help improve the effectiveness, quality, and coordination of HIV services by pairing U.S. public health expertise with on-the-ground implementation priorities defined by Cote d'Ivoire and its stakeholders.
The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which generally means CDC expects substantial involvement during the project period rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. While the announcement text provided is brief, the stated intent is clear: support for HIV programming across the prevention-to-treatment continuum, structured as technical assistance that aligns with national plans. Awards were expected to support activities that help systems perform better, such as improving service delivery approaches, strengthening program management and coordination, and supporting the use of data and public health methods to guide HIV interventions. The opportunity falls under the health category and is tied to CFDA 93.067 (Global AIDS).
In terms of funding scale and competitiveness, the notice lists an estimated total funding amount of $1,000,000, an award ceiling of $2,000,000, and an award floor of $0, with up to 10 expected awards. Those figures suggest CDC anticipated multiple awards with flexible budgeting depending on the scope and strength of applications, with the ceiling indicating the maximum size of any single award. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which reduces financial barriers for applicants and typically indicates the program is intended to fund the full federal share of the approved project budget.
Eligibility was broad and intentionally inclusive, spanning U.S. and non-U.S. entities and covering many organizational types that commonly contribute to HIV programming and technical assistance. Eligible applicants included nonprofits (with or without 501(c)(3) status), for-profit organizations (including small, minority-, and women-owned businesses), universities and colleges, research institutions, hospitals, community-based and faith-based organizations, tribal governments and tribally designated organizations, Alaska Native and Urban Indian health organizations, tribal epidemiology centers, and state and local governments (including U.S. territories and freely associated states listed in the notice). Non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities were explicitly eligible as well, reflecting the international nature of PEPFAR work and the value of local or regional expertise. The announcement also clarifies that a "bona fide agent" may apply on behalf of a state or local government, but only if the applicant provides a legal, binding agreement documenting that status as part of the submission.
Key dates indicate this was a short-fuse opportunity. The posting and creation date were April 3, 2013. The original closing date was April 9, 2013, later extended to April 22, 2013, and the opportunity was archived on May 22, 2013. The short application window implies applicants were expected to already have relevant capacity, past performance, and a ready-to-execute approach for delivering technical assistance aligned to Cote d'Ivoire’s HIV priorities.
For applicants needing help accessing the full announcement, CDC directed inquiries to its Procurement and Grants Office Technical Information Management team at (770) 488-2700 or PGOTIM@cdc.gov. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a PEPFAR-funded CDC partnership vehicle to bolster HIV prevention, care, and treatment in Cote d'Ivoire through targeted technical support that complements and strengthens the country’s existing strategic plan rather than operating as a standalone or parallel program.
