Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity (CDC RFA PS07-719) is a CDC cooperative agreement under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) focused on strengthening South Africa's HIV and AIDS response through university-led technical assistance. The overall aim is to expand the delivery of HIV and AIDS treatment and care, reinforce the underlying health and program systems that support service delivery, and improve the quality of care. In practical terms, the grant is meant to channel both financial support and programmatic support into HIV prevention, care, and treatment activities by leveraging the capacity of local academic institutions that already work in this space.
Funding for the program was projected at approximately $2,000,000 in U.S. fiscal year 2007, with the CDC anticipating about four awards. Individual awards were expected to range from a floor of $200,000 to a ceiling of $1,000,000, and there was no cost-sharing or matching requirement listed. The assistance mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which generally means CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the work beyond simply providing funds, often through collaboration on planning, implementation support, and performance monitoring.
Eligibility is narrowly defined. Applications were limited to indigenous South African universities, medical schools, and nursing colleges that are implementing HIV and AIDS-related activities. While the general eligible applicant categories include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education as well as private institutions of higher education, the key restriction is that the applicant must be a South African institution (indigenous) and already engaged in relevant HIV/AIDS work. The focus on universities and training institutions signals an emphasis on building sustainable local capacity, improving clinical and program practices, and strengthening the workforce and systems that underpin long-term service delivery.
The opportunity was categorized under the health activity area and tied to CFDA 93.067 (Global AIDS). The announcement was posted on September 6, 2007, with an application deadline of October 5, 2007. Applications had to be received by 5:00 p.m. on the closing date. The estimated award/funding date was stated as prior to November 5, 2007, indicating a relatively quick turnaround from submission to anticipated funding decisions for that cycle.
Applicants were directed to consult the full funding opportunity announcement hosted on the CDC procurement and grants funding page for complete program requirements, expectations, and submission instructions.
