Opportunity Summary:

This funding opportunity, CDC RFA GH12-1224, is a discretionary U.S. government grant issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) using a cooperative agreement mechanism. It supports the Presidents Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) and focuses on providing targeted technical assistance to Mozambiques Ministry of Health (MOH) to strengthen HIV service delivery and manage program transition activities in Zambezia Province. The core idea is to align CDC-supported assistance with Mozambiques national HIV strategy and broader health sector plans, with CDC working under the leadership of the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator and in coordination with the host government and other partners. In practice, the award is designed to help the MOH improve the quality, continuity, and sustainability of HIV programs while moving greater ownership and operational responsibility toward local systems.

The award falls under the health funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.067 (Global AIDS). CDC anticipated making up to two awards under this announcement. The estimated total funding for the opportunity is about $143,000,000, and the listed award ceiling is $25,000,000, indicating that individual cooperative agreement awards could be substantial depending on program design, scope, and geographic and technical coverage. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.

A wide range of applicants were eligible. Eligibility extends across U.S. and non-U.S. entities and includes nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status, for-profit organizations (other than small businesses), small, minority-, and women-owned businesses, universities and colleges, research institutions, hospitals, community-based and faith-based organizations, and multiple categories of Tribal governments and Tribal health entities. State and local governments (including U.S. territories and freely associated states listed in the notice) could also apply, as could political subdivisions of states in consultation with states. The announcement also allows applications from bona fide agents acting on behalf of a state or local government, but requires formal legal documentation proving that status to be submitted with the application materials.

From an operational standpoint, the cooperative agreement structure signals that CDC expected to have substantial involvement in the funded activities, such as collaborating on planning, monitoring, performance management, technical guidance, and alignment with PEPFAR priorities and Mozambiques national framework. While the excerpted description is brief, the title and context make the intended programmatic focus clear: improving HIV services (which commonly includes prevention, testing, treatment, care and support, laboratory and supply chain strengthening, data systems, and workforce capacity) while supporting an organized transition of program functions to the MOH and local institutions in Zambezia Province. This type of transition-oriented technical assistance typically emphasizes strengthening governance, management capacity, service quality improvement, and data-driven decision making so that services can be maintained and scaled sustainably over time.

Key dates show that the opportunity was posted on February 7, 2012, created on April 7, 2012, and had an original closing date of April 9, 2012, later extended to a current closing date of April 27, 2012. The archive date was May 27, 2012. For applicant support or access issues related to the full announcement, CDC directed inquiries to CDC PGOTIMS by phone at 770-488-2700 or by email at pgotim@cdc.gov.
