Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH20 2061
This funding opportunity is a CDC (HHS) cooperative agreement under PEPFAR focused on strengthening and using strategic information in South Africa to better track and respond to the HIV and TB epidemics. The overall purpose is to ensure that decision-makers have accurate, timely, and high-quality data to monitor progress toward epidemic control, understand program impact, and guide how limited resources are allocated across populations and geographic areas. In practical terms, the award is meant to keep South Africa’s HIV surveillance and related data systems producing reliable estimates over time, while also improving the government’s ability to collect, analyze, and actually use those data for planning and policy decisions.
The work emphasized in the notice centers on maintaining and improving proven surveillance and strategic information approaches that have been used previously in South Africa. The recipient is expected to support ongoing monitoring of the epidemic, deepen understanding of the factors that are driving transmission and outcomes, and generate evidence that can be used to adapt interventions and health policies. A key programmatic aim is to strengthen the South African government’s capacity to manage high-quality data, so that national and sub-national planners can evaluate interventions targeting HIV-affected populations, measure progress against national goals, and identify where program adjustments are needed to reduce illness and deaths from HIV and TB.
Several specific data uses are highlighted. The award supports collecting information to evaluate the South African National HIV, AIDS, and STI Strategic Plan (NSP) 2017-2022, which implies a strong focus on indicators and analyses that show whether national strategies are working as intended. It also supports collecting and compiling HIV indicators required for reporting to international bodies, meaning the work has both domestic value for South African planning and external value for standardized reporting obligations. By keeping surveillance and indicator reporting robust, the program aims to provide continuous, credible HIV estimates that can be compared over time, which is essential for tracking progress toward epidemic control.
An important structural feature is that CDC intends to rely on in-country expertise that is cost-effective and formally recognized by South Africa’s National Department of Health as an organization permitted to conduct this kind of strategic information gathering. This reflects an emphasis on leveraging existing local capacity and established authorities rather than building entirely new parallel systems. The cooperative agreement structure also signals that CDC expects substantial involvement in the work, typically through technical collaboration, shared monitoring expectations, and ongoing coordination rather than a hands-off grant.
On funding and administrative details, the opportunity is listed as CDC RFA GH20-2061, categorized as discretionary funding with a single expected award. The notice states an approximate total funding amount of USD 35,000,000 for Year 1, contingent on the availability of funds. At the same time, it lists an award ceiling for Year 1 as 0 (none), which generally indicates that no maximum cap is being set in the announcement even though an expected total amount is provided for planning purposes. The CFDA number is 93.067. The opportunity was created February 25, 2020, with an original closing date of April 25, 2020, and electronic applications due by 11:59 p.m. ET on the closing date.
