Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH 23 0014

This funding opportunity, titled "Technical Assistance to National Entities and Regional Health Bureaus (RHBs) in the Implementation of HIV Programs across Ethiopia under PEPFAR," is a CDC cooperative agreement designed to strengthen and accelerate HIV program performance across Ethiopia by providing high-level technical assistance and targeted service delivery support. It is issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Center for Global Health, under CFDA/Assistance Listing 93.067. The opportunity is identified as CDC RFA GH 23 0014 and falls under the health activity category.

The core purpose is to address persistent gaps and operational challenges within Ethiopia's health system by supporting national and regional structures that lead or implement HIV programming. The work is framed as "above-site" support, meaning the recipient is expected to work at higher system levels (national and regional) rather than focusing only on individual facilities, while still being able to provide direct service delivery support in specific settings where it is needed to close performance gaps. Key government counterparts explicitly named include Ethiopia's Ministry of Health (MOH) and the Ethiopian Public Health Institute (EPHI), along with regional health bureaus, with a particular emphasis on regions that are not yet performing at saturation levels.

A major focus is helping Ethiopia move toward and sustain progress on the global HIV targets commonly referred to as 95-95-95, which aim for 95 percent of people living with HIV to know their status, 95 percent of those diagnosed to be on treatment, and 95 percent of those on treatment to achieve viral suppression. The NOFO emphasizes technical assistance to "transition regions," described as regions close to achieving these goals, where support is expected to be delivered in collaboration with MOH-led mechanisms. In practice, this suggests the awardee would help fine-tune strategies, improve program quality, and strengthen monitoring and management systems so that near-target regions can close the remaining gaps and maintain results.

The opportunity also highlights differentiated geographic needs. It calls for continued support to "maintained regions" that still have gaps preventing full saturation, and it calls for more intensive technical assistance and direct service delivery support for newly formed regions in South Ethiopia, as well as support to federal hospitals and the Gambella Regional Health Bureau. This mix indicates CDC is seeking an implementer that can operate across multiple administrative layers and adapt support intensity based on regional maturity, capacity, and performance. The reference to newly formed regions signals an additional need to establish or stabilize systems that may be newer, less resourced, or still building administrative and technical structures for HIV programming.

The types of support envisioned include strategic planning, development or refinement of policy and guidelines, and ongoing efforts to maintain and strengthen technical capacity for implementation and monitoring. That typically encompasses helping define program priorities, improving coordination and governance, strengthening data systems and use of data for decision-making, improving quality assurance approaches, and ensuring that guidance and operational tools are aligned with national policy and PEPFAR expectations. The NOFO also notes a particular emphasis on achieving program goals in priority locations and populations, which implies a focus on geographic hotspots and groups with disproportionate HIV burden or barriers to services, using data-driven prioritization to guide where resources and technical support are concentrated.

Funding details indicate CDC anticipated approximately $22,000,000 in total fiscal year funding for Year 1, contingent on the availability of funds. The listing notes an "Award Ceiling for Year 1" of $0, which can appear contradictory but usually indicates that the ceiling was not specified as a hard cap in the system field even though an expected funding level is provided in the narrative. CDC expected to make one award, meaning the agency likely intended to fund a single primary recipient to carry out the national and multi-regional scope of work, potentially coordinating with partners and subrecipients as appropriate. Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning a wide range of entity types could apply as long as they met any additional requirements in the full announcement.

Administratively, the opportunity was posted January 27, 2023, with an original closing date of March 28, 2023, and electronic submissions due by 11:59 pm Eastern Time on the due date. Overall, the grant is structured to consolidate and extend HIV program gains in Ethiopia by strengthening leadership, policy, planning, and monitoring capacity at MOH, EPHI, and regional levels, while also deploying intensive technical and service-delivery support to regions and institutions where program performance and system readiness require additional reinforcement. The NOFO also leaves room for related health system strengthening and support to emerging public health issues, suggesting the awardee may be expected to adapt capabilities to evolving needs while staying anchored in HIV program goals under PEPFAR.
