Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH17 1727
This funding opportunity, titled "Building Technical and Management Capacity of the Provincial Health Directorate of Inhambane to Expand and Sustain Quality HIV/AIDS Prevention, Care and Treatment Programs in Mozambique under PEPFAR" (Funding Opportunity Number: CDC RFA GH17-1727), is a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cooperative agreement designed to strengthen the ability of the Provincial Health Directorate in Inhambane Province, Mozambique, to directly implement and manage HIV services. Positioned within the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) framework, the core aim is to move more responsibility for day-to-day HIV program delivery and oversight to the provincial government level, while protecting service continuity for patients who rely on consistent access to prevention, testing linkages, treatment, and long-term care.
The central purpose of the FOA is capacity building that leads to sustained, high-quality HIV care and treatment services led by the provincial health authority. In practical terms, the opportunity focuses on developing both technical capacity (the clinical and public health skills needed to deliver effective HIV services) and management capacity (the leadership, planning, budgeting, supervision, and systems needed to run those services reliably). A key emphasis is supporting continued expansion and quality improvement without "life-threatening disruptions" in service delivery, which signals strong attention to transition planning, continuity of antiretroviral therapy (ART), stable clinic operations, uninterrupted supply and lab services, and the avoidance of gaps that can cause treatment interruption, drug resistance, or loss to follow-up.
While HIV treatment services sit at the center of the scope, the FOA explicitly includes related activities across the broader continuum of HIV prevention and care. That typically implies support for strengthening service delivery platforms that help identify people living with HIV, link them to treatment, retain them in care, and monitor clinical outcomes. It also indicates attention to prevention and supportive care elements that often surround treatment programs, such as adherence support, patient tracking, service integration, and quality assurance activities that improve outcomes at facility and community levels. The overall direction is not a narrow, single-intervention project, but a systems-oriented effort intended to help a provincial government structure and sustain a comprehensive HIV response.
The award is categorized as discretionary funding and will be issued as a cooperative agreement, meaning CDC is expected to have substantial involvement during implementation compared to a standard grant. Cooperative agreements often involve joint planning, ongoing technical engagement, performance monitoring, and iterative improvement with the awardee. The eligible applicant category is listed as "Others," and the implementing governmental counterpart named in the description is the Provincial Directorate of Health, Inhambane, underscoring that the program is tailored for provincial-level leadership and direct service implementation rather than parallel service delivery structures.
In terms of scale and competition, the FOA anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $1,000,000. The CFDA number is 93.067, and the sponsoring agency is the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Center for Global Health (CDC-CGH). The opportunity was created on August 24, 2016, with an original closing date of October 23, 2016. Taken together, these details describe a focused, province-specific investment intended to strengthen local government ownership and operational readiness for HIV program delivery, maintain uninterrupted access to lifesaving services, and support ongoing expansion and quality improvement of HIV prevention, care, and treatment in Inhambane Province under PEPFAR.Apply for CDC RFA GH17 1727
