Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH17 175002CONT17

This funding opportunity is a continuation notice from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Center for Global Health, under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). Its focus is on providing technical assistance to the Republic of Rwanda to strengthen and integrate key public health systems that support high-quality, comprehensive HIV services. In practical terms, the opportunity centers on improving the sustainability and performance of Rwanda's health systems, with particular emphasis on three closely linked areas: (1) overall health system strengthening and integration, (2) strategic information systems used to guide HIV programming and decision-making, and (3) laboratory systems that underpin accurate diagnosis, monitoring, and quality assurance for HIV-related care.

The goal implied by the title and program framing is not simply to deliver direct services, but to reinforce the national structures that make HIV services effective and durable over time. That typically includes building capacity within ministries and national institutions, standardizing and improving data systems used for planning and performance management, and ensuring laboratory networks can reliably support HIV testing and clinical monitoring. Within a PEPFAR context, this kind of technical assistance is commonly aimed at helping a country maintain or improve progress toward HIV epidemic control by making HIV prevention, testing, treatment, and monitoring more consistent, data-driven, and integrated within the broader health system, rather than operating as stand-alone efforts.

Administratively, this is identified as a cooperative agreement, which generally means CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the work compared with a standard grant. Cooperative agreements often include ongoing collaboration, technical input, and joint planning between the recipient and CDC, especially for activities like strategic information, surveillance, monitoring and evaluation, laboratory quality systems, and implementation of national guidelines. The opportunity is categorized as continuation funding, indicating it is intended to support or extend existing work rather than launch an entirely new, open competition; that aligns with how large global health initiatives frequently maintain multi-year partnerships and periodically issue continuation actions tied to performance and evolving program priorities.

The opportunity number is CDC RFA GH17-175002CONT17, and it is listed under CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number 93.067, which corresponds to CDC global health assistance activities. The funding activity category is health. The listing indicates an expected number of awards of 10, suggesting multiple recipients or partner organizations may be involved in complementary roles, such as supporting national-level systems, regional implementation, data and surveillance strengthening, laboratory quality management, or targeted technical support functions. The award ceiling is listed as 0, which usually signals that a specific maximum amount is not provided in the synopsis data field, or that ceiling details are handled elsewhere in the full announcement or are structured differently for continuation actions.

Eligibility is described broadly as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," which implies the detailed eligibility rules were provided in the full notice rather than in the brief synopsis. In CDC and PEPFAR-related cooperative agreements, eligibility often depends on the applicant's demonstrated technical capacity and prior involvement, sometimes limited to existing recipients or organizations meeting specific criteria tied to continuation funding.

Key dates in the synopsis show the opportunity was created on March 27, 2017, with an original closing date of May 31, 2017. Overall, the grant opportunity is best understood as CDC, through PEPFAR, supporting Rwanda with specialized technical assistance to strengthen the backbone systems that make comprehensive HIV services high quality and sustainable: integrated health systems, strong strategic information for evidence-based decisions, and reliable laboratory systems that ensure accurate testing and ongoing clinical monitoring.
