About this opportunity
This Federal Grant Opportunity, issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under the Department of Health and Human Services, seeks to strengthen the capacity and coordination of civil society organizations (CSOs) in Uganda to accelerate HIV epidemic control. The opportunity aims to support comprehensive HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment services for key populations, including female sex workers, men who have sex with men, people who inject drugs, transgender individuals, as well as priority populations such as fisher folk and truck drivers. Key requirements include building CSO capacity, addressing structural barriers to care, strengthening CSO coordination, and improving data management systems. The evaluation will prioritize local partners, with a 30-point preference for their involvement. Applications are due by February 18, 2025, and the expected award date is September 30, 2025.
The first-year funding for this opportunity is $10 million, with the potential for 1-2 awards spanning five 12-month budget periods. The program seeks to reach 28,000 key population members with HIV prevention interventions, conduct 30,000 HIV tests, and enroll 6,500 people on PrEP, all of which must be reported quarterly through the DATIM system. The work will be performed in Uganda, in collaboration with the country's Ministry of Health and other government agencies, as well as CDC implementing partners.
Synopsis
The Award Ceiling for Year 1 is 0 (none). CDC anticipates an Approximate Total Fiscal Year Funding amount of $10,000,000 for Year 1, subject to the availability of funds.A key PEPFAR priority is ensuring human rights and leaving no one behind. To achieve this priority, it's critical for all sub-populations to attain the UNAIDS 95-95-95 targets to reach epidemic control by 2030.This NOFO aims to reach populations that are at the highest risk of HIV in Uganda, including:Key populations: female sex workers, men who have sex with men, people who inject drugs, and transgender persons.Priority populations: fisher folk and truckers.Adolescent girls and young women.However, existing interventions and programs meant to reach key and priority populations are missing the mark.This NOFO supports civil society organizations (CSOs) in providing services that focus on increasing the access of key and priority populations to HIV prevention, care, and treatment.This NOFO builds on lessons from the Local Capacity Initiative and Key Populations Investment Fund. It aims to:Address legal, policy, and structural barriers that limit access to services.Improve the capacity of CSOs to work effectively with CDC-funded implementing partners, the Ministry of Health (MoH), and other relevant government ministries to provide comprehensive HIV/AIDS services.
