Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) through its Procurement and Grants Office, is a discretionary cooperative agreement focused on strengthening global readiness for emerging infectious diseases and other serious public health threats under the framework of the International Health Regulations (IHR). The announcement is titled "World Health Organization (WHO) Addressing Emerging Infectious Diseases and the International Health Regulations" and is identified as Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA CI09-903. It was posted on March 30, 2009, with applications due by 5:00 pm Eastern Time on June 1, 2009, and an anticipated award date prior to July 30, 2009.
The program’s central purpose is to support the World Health Organization (WHO), described in the notice as the lead health agency of the United Nations, in carrying out a coordinated plan that helps national governments and regional authorities prevent, detect, and respond to emerging infectious diseases and other public health emergencies. In practical terms, the funding is intended to reinforce international capacity for surveillance, outbreak investigation, reporting, and coordinated response actions aligned with IHR expectations, which emphasize timely identification of threats, transparent notification, and effective cross-border collaboration when events may pose international public health risks.
The CDC expects to make a single award under this opportunity, with an estimated total funding level of approximately $50,000,000 in fiscal year 2009. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates substantial programmatic involvement by the federal agency during the period of performance rather than a hands-off grant relationship. The opportunity lists no cost-sharing or matching requirement. While the announcement includes award ceiling and floor values of zero, it simultaneously states the estimated total available funding and the intent to fund one award, suggesting that applicants should rely on the full announcement for definitive budget and award structure details.
Eligibility for this specific opportunity is narrowly defined: the eligible applicant is the World Health Organization (WHO). The listing also includes a general eligible-applicant category of "Others," but the eligibility clarification explicitly names WHO, indicating that this is essentially a targeted award designed to fund WHO’s role in helping countries and regions build and coordinate public health preparedness and response capacities consistent with IHR implementation.
For full technical requirements, application components, and detailed program expectations, the notice directs prospective applicants to the complete announcement on Grants.gov. For access issues or administrative assistance, the contact provided is PGO TIMS at 770-488-2700, with a general email referenced in the notice.
