About this opportunity

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is soliciting cooperative agreement applications to fund international implementation and research activities that advance detection, surveillance, prevention, and response systems for antimicrobial resistance, healthcare-associated infections, and emerging infectious disease threats across low and middle-income countries, with a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) forecasted for posting in 2026.

Eligible applicants include for-profit organizations, nonprofits (501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3)), higher education institutions (public and private), state and local governments, tribal governments (federally and non-federally recognized), special district governments, public or Indian housing authorities, independent school districts, small businesses, and other entity types. Foreign applicants are eligible. No cost share or matching requirement is specified in this forecast notice.

The cooperative agreement period of performance runs one to five years, with initial awards funding the first 12-month budget period. Non-competitive continuation is available subject to satisfactory progress and fund availability. Awards may range from $250 thousand to $27.4 million based on recent portfolio activity, though the forecast does not specify an award ceiling, floor, or expected number of awards for this NOFO.

The program builds on CDC's Global Antimicrobial Resistance Laboratory and Response Network, healthcare-associated infection surveillance and prevention networks, and related collaborating programs. Core activities include strengthening infection prevention and control and antimicrobial stewardship systems, reducing healthcare-associated infection burden and antimicrobial resistance spread, and protecting healthcare workers and patients across healthcare, community, and environmental settings.

Applications will be evaluated on scientific and technical merit, program relevance to CDC priorities, and fund availability. The CFDA number is 93.318 (Protecting and Improving Health Globally: Building and Strengthening Public Health Impact, Systems, Capacity and Security).

Forecast synopsis

The proposed international hybrid Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) will link non-research implementation with targeted research that advances CDC's mission to address antimicrobial resistance (AR) across multiple bacterial and fungal pathogens, healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), and emerging infectious disease threats including viral pathogens across healthcare, community, and environmental settings in low and middle-income countries. AR and HAI remain urgent global threats, with substantial mortality and economic impact. Building on CDC's Global AR Laboratory and Response Network, HAI surveillance and prevention networks, and other collaborating programs, the NOFO seeks to strengthen detection, surveillance, prevention, and response systems to reduce illness and death, stop the spread of AR, protect healthcare workers and patients, and lower costs through robust infection prevention and control (IPC) and antimicrobial stewardship.
