Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH20 2015
This funding opportunity is a CDC cooperative agreement under PEPFAR focused on strengthening HIV care and support services in Cote d'Ivoire by improving surveillance and program evaluation systems. The broader U.S. Government objective for PEPFAR in Cote d'Ivoire is to help the country reach and sustain HIV epidemic control through evidence-based policies and interventions that are continuously refined using better data and stronger evaluation. In practical terms, the opportunity is designed to ensure decision-makers have timely, high-quality epidemiologic and surveillance information to guide program improvements, target resources where they are most needed, and ultimately support better health outcomes for people living with HIV and their families.
The notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is listed as CDC RFA GH20 2015 under CFDA 93.067, administered by the Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Center for Global Health (CGH). It is categorized as discretionary funding using a cooperative agreement mechanism, which typically means CDC expects to be substantially involved in the project through technical collaboration, guidance, and shared planning during implementation. Eligibility is broadly open (unrestricted), meaning many entity types may apply as long as they meet any conditions described in the full NOFO. The NOFO was created on November 26, 2019, with an original application deadline of January 24, 2020 (applications due by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time), and CDC anticipated making one award.
Financially, the posting includes an award ceiling for Year 1 listed as 0 (none), which generally indicates that a maximum cap was not specified in the public summary rather than implying no funding will be provided. CDC anticipated approximately $2,000,000 in total fiscal year funding for Year 1, contingent on the availability of funds. With one expected award, the practical implication is that a single recipient would likely manage a nationally relevant package of surveillance and evaluation activities rather than a set of smaller, competing projects.
Programmatically, the NOFO emphasizes strengthening the data foundation needed to reach epidemic control. A central early activity is a robust assessment to identify priority gaps in epidemiologic and surveillance data, specifically focusing on the most critical information needs tied to the highest-priority national strategies for controlling HIV. This kind of gap analysis is intended to highlight where existing data streams are weak, incomplete, delayed, or not actionable, and then to translate those findings into a prioritized workplan that supports faster and smarter decision-making.
Another major component is support to develop and/or update a national surveillance plan. This suggests the recipient would work with national stakeholders to clarify surveillance objectives, data sources, standards, governance, reporting timelines, and analytic approaches. Updating the plan is meant to ensure the surveillance system keeps pace with changes in the epidemic and the program, and that it can reliably generate the indicators and analyses needed by the Ministry of Health and PEPFAR partners to monitor progress and adjust interventions.
The NOFO also calls for program evaluation activities that look directly at health outcomes associated with newer or evolving service delivery approaches. Examples named in the announcement include differentiated service delivery models, multi-month scripting (MMS), and the transition to the antiretroviral regimen tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/lamivudine/dolutegravir (TLD). Evaluations in these areas would typically examine whether these strategies improve retention in care, viral suppression, patient satisfaction, clinic efficiency, and overall quality of care, while also identifying any unintended consequences or implementation barriers. The inclusion of these specific strategies signals an emphasis on learning from real-world rollout, not just tracking outputs, so that national scale-up decisions are guided by evidence on outcomes.
Capacity building is another explicit priority, particularly improving the ability of in-country teams to rapidly produce high-quality scientific abstracts, publications, and presentations. This is meant to strengthen local ownership of data, improve the quality and credibility of analyses, and ensure findings are shared in ways that influence policy and practice. Alongside scientific writing and dissemination, the NOFO highlights technical assistance and training to promote information sharing and the exchange of best practices among national stakeholders. In effect, the award is intended not only to generate better data and evaluations, but also to strengthen the national ecosystem that turns evidence into action by improving communication channels, standardizing learning processes, and making it easier for programs and partners to apply what works.
Overall, the opportunity is framed as an investment in the surveillance and evaluation backbone of the HIV response in Cote d'Ivoire. Rather than directly funding clinical service delivery, it targets the systems and skills that help the national program understand where the epidemic is going, how well interventions are performing, which innovations are improving outcomes, and what adjustments are needed to stay on track toward epidemic control under PEPFAR.Apply for CDC RFA GH20 2015
