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 (CDC), under the Center for Global Health (CGH). It is titled "Technical Assistance to National AIDS Control Program (NACP) in India for Strategic Planning and Decision Making under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) India" and is identified by Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA GH13 136204CONT17. As framed in the title and description, the purpose is to provide targeted technical assistance to Indias National AIDS Control Program (NACP) so it can strengthen strategic planning and improve how it uses evidence and program data for decision making within the context of PEPFAR-supported HIV activities in India.
The opportunity is categorized as a continuation award, which generally signals that the funding is intended to maintain or extend an ongoing body of work rather than launch a brand-new competition or stand up a new program from scratch. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, meaning the CDC is expected to have substantial involvement in the work beyond simply providing funds. In practice, cooperative agreements are commonly used when the funder anticipates active collaboration, technical input, or joint planning with the recipient, especially for complex public health efforts that require alignment with national priorities, standardized approaches, or shared monitoring and evaluation expectations.
The activity category is Health, and the CFDA number listed is 93.067, which is commonly associated with CDC global HIV and related public health assistance activities. The notice anticipates a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1), reinforcing that this is likely designed to support one primary implementer or partner organization that can provide sustained, coordinated assistance to NACP. The AwardCeiling is listed as 0, which typically indicates that a specific maximum funding amount is not published in the summary fields, may be determined through negotiation, or is specified elsewhere in the full announcement documents rather than in the excerpt provided.
From a programmatic standpoint, the work implied by this opportunity centers on strengthening NACP capacity to plan, prioritize, and manage HIV program strategies using high-quality information. "Strategic planning and decision making" in a national AIDS program context often includes support for setting or refining national and subnational priorities, improving the use of surveillance and program monitoring data, conducting analysis to guide resource allocation, and strengthening frameworks for tracking progress against national and PEPFAR-related targets. Technical assistance can also include helping build systems and processes that make planning more routine and data-driven, such as standardized indicators, improved reporting pipelines, analytical dashboards, review meetings, and guidance for interpreting results and translating them into program adjustments.
The timeline in the source fields shows a creation date of September 12, 2016, with an original closing date of November 10, 2016. The eligible applicants field is listed as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," which indicates eligibility is defined more specifically in the full opportunity announcement. In many CDC continuation cooperative agreements, eligibility can be limited to current or previous recipients, certain categories of organizations with demonstrated technical expertise, or partners that meet particular requirements tied to the existing award structure. Without the additional eligibility text, the safest interpretation is that eligibility is not broadly open to all applicants and requires checking the full funding notice for the exact constraints.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as CDC, through PEPFAR India, supporting a single partner via a continuation cooperative agreement to work closely with Indias National AIDS Control Program on the practical, day-to-day and longer-term analytic and planning functions that underpin an effective HIV response. The emphasis is less on direct service delivery and more on strengthening the national programs ability to make strategic choices, use evidence consistently, and improve program performance through better planning, monitoring, and informed decision making.
