Opportunity Summary:
The Tuberculosis Control Project is a USAID-funded health initiative designed to support the Russian Federation's efforts to reduce tuberculosis-related deaths and illness, curb the spread of TB infection, and prevent the rise of drug-resistant tuberculosis. The core idea is practical and service-focused: improve how TB patients are found, supported, and kept on treatment in real-world conditions where adherence is often difficult. A central emphasis of the project is building outreach TB service models that strengthen directly observed therapy (DOT), meaning treatment is monitored to help ensure patients take the right medications consistently and complete the full course. By improving adherence and continuity of care, the project aims to reduce treatment failure, limit ongoing transmission, and lower the risk that improper or interrupted treatment will contribute to drug resistance.
A key part of the opportunity is sustainability. Rather than creating a parallel system that disappears when funding ends, the project is intended to help local governments and health authorities use existing TB resources more effectively and strategically. In practice, that signals an approach that blends technical assistance with systems strengthening, such as improving how services are organized, targeted, and managed at the local level, and ensuring outreach and DOT support can be maintained within available budgets and infrastructure over time.
This funding opportunity was issued by USAID in Moscow under the title "Tuberculosis Control Project" (Funding Opportunity Number: USAID RUSSIA OH 10 0007 RFA). It is a discretionary opportunity using a cooperative agreement mechanism, which generally means the funder expects substantial involvement in guiding or collaborating during implementation rather than simply providing funds and stepping back. The activity category is Health, and USAID anticipated making one award.
The estimated total funding amount is $10,000,000, with an expected award range from $9,500,000 (floor) to $10,700,000 (ceiling). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowers barriers for organizations that may not have the capacity to contribute significant non-federal resources.
Eligibility is broad and includes U.S. private voluntary organizations, U.S., Russian, or other non-U.S. nongovernmental organizations, private nonprofit organizations, and for-profit entities that are willing to forego profits. Universities, research organizations, professional associations, and special interest associations are explicitly included, and public international organizations, as well as faith-based and community organizations, may also apply. USAID also notes an interest in expanding and diversifying its partner base, encouraging applications from newer partners, particularly when they collaborate with a more experienced organization.
The opportunity was posted on August 11, 2010, with a closing date of September 29, 2010. For applicants who had difficulty accessing the full announcement, the point of contact listed was Donella Russell, Agreement Officer at USAID Moscow (phone: 495 728 6296).
