About this opportunity
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention seeks applicants for a cooperative agreement to strengthen health systems and laboratory networks for HIV and TB detection, management, and monitoring in India, with applications due by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on July 24, 2026.
Eligible applicants include any organization type—government agencies, nonprofits, for-profit entities, foreign-based organizations, and institutions of higher education—provided they conduct projects in India and maintain active Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA) registration. All applicants must comply with India's FCRA requirements, with active registration documentation required as a responsive criterion.
The CDC anticipates approximately $6 million in total Year 1 funding, subject to availability of funds, with one to two anticipated awards. No award ceiling applies to Year 1. The period of performance spans five years across five 12-month budget periods, with all work performed in India. The expected award start date is September 30, 2026, and applicants will be notified of award status by the end of August 2026.
Proposals must strengthen India's Ministry of Health and Family Welfare and National AIDS Control Organization capacity to optimize health information and laboratory networks for HIV, TB, and co-infections; enhance surveillance of infectious disease threats through integrated national data systems; reinforce biosafety, biosecurity, and laboratory quality systems; adopt innovative diagnostic technologies; support molecular epidemiology and drug-resistance tracking; and strengthen the health workforce to collect, analyze, and use data for patient care improvement and epidemic monitoring. Activities emphasize early detection, service delivery, and monitoring in priority regions while advancing the 95-95-95 HIV targets and aligning with the America First Global Health Strategy.
Merit review allocates 40 points for approach, 35 points for organizational capacity, and 25 points for data, monitoring, and evaluation. A local organization funding preference of 10 additional points is available for qualifying entities meeting specific local organization definitions. The cooperative agreement involves substantial CDC involvement in personnel selection, technical support, data management oversight, and program monitoring throughout implementation.
This opportunity is assigned to CFDA 93.067, Global AIDS, under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR).
