Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Technical Assistance to the Ministry of Health (MOH) for HIV Services and Program Transition in the Republic of Mozambique under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)," is a continuation cooperative agreement issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS-CDC). It is focused on strengthening Mozambique's national HIV response by providing targeted technical assistance to the Ministry of Health, with a particular emphasis on supporting HIV service delivery and guiding an organized transition of program responsibilities. Because it is structured as a cooperative agreement rather than a simple grant, the expectation is that CDC will remain substantially involved in the work, collaborating closely with the recipient to align activities with PEPFAR priorities and national plans.
The opportunity falls under the health activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.067, which corresponds to CDC's global HIV/AIDS programming and related public health efforts. The primary intent is to reinforce Ministry of Health capacity across key HIV program functions, which commonly include planning and governance, program management, technical standards, monitoring and evaluation, quality improvement, and coordination with implementing partners. In practical terms, an award like this typically supports expertise and systems that help the MOH manage and sustain HIV services over time, including the ability to oversee service quality, use data for decision-making, and integrate HIV programming into broader health system structures.
As a continuation opportunity, this announcement is not positioned like an open, broad competition for brand-new projects. Instead, it signals ongoing support to continue or expand established work under an existing program framework. The eligibility field is listed as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," indicating that eligibility is more restricted or defined in accompanying documentation rather than being broadly open to all applicants. In continuation notices, this often means that only certain entities, frequently existing recipients or specifically designated organizations, are eligible to apply, though the precise limitation would be spelled out in the full eligibility language.
The funding opportunity number is CDC-RFA-GH12-122404CONT16, which identifies it as a CDC request for applications tied to a global health mechanism and a continuation action. The application deadline shown is April 29, 2016 (both the original and current closing dates match), and the opportunity was created and posted on January 26, 2016. The listing indicates an "ExpectedAwards" count of 50, suggesting CDC anticipated multiple awards or sub-awards under a broader continuation structure, potentially covering different technical areas, geographic regions, or partner roles supporting Mozambique's MOH-led HIV response.
The listed award ceiling is "0," which generally means the maximum award amount was not specified in the public summary record and would be detailed in the full announcement or in continuation award documentation. In CDC and PEPFAR-related postings, this can appear when budgets are negotiated based on approved workplans, evolving program needs, or when amounts are determined through continuation processes rather than fixed caps stated upfront.
Overall, the core purpose of this opportunity is to help Mozambique's Ministry of Health sustain and improve HIV prevention, care, and treatment services while transitioning program leadership and operational responsibilities in a deliberate, managed way consistent with PEPFAR goals. The emphasis on "program transition" strongly implies work that builds institutional capacity and long-term ownership, aiming to reduce reliance on external implementing structures by strengthening MOH systems, technical leadership, and oversight so that HIV services remain resilient, effective, and nationally directed.
