About this program
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) administers the Complex Humanitarian Emergency and War-Related Injury Public Health Activities program (CFDA 93.269), which last awarded grants on September 30, 2015, making this program inactive for over a decade.
The program funds epidemiological and public health research and operational activities in crisis-affected populations, including rapid health and nutrition assessments, maternal and newborn health interventions for internally displaced persons, surveillance system development for mortality monitoring, mental health integration into primary care in conflict-affected regions, sexual and reproductive health in disaster risk reduction, and psychosocial support for medical staff during public health emergencies. Recent awards demonstrate emphasis on establishing robust data collection methods in humanitarian settings, evaluating malnutrition prevention approaches, and integrating health services across sectors in displaced-person populations.
Across 36 total awards from 2008 to 2015, the program obligated $90.8 million in federal dollars. The CDC provided all funding, split across two internal funding lines that together accounted for 33 awards totaling $89.5 million, with a third HHS funding line contributing 3 awards of $1.2 million. Awards are predominantly Cooperative Agreements (86 percent), with smaller shares of Project Grants (11 percent) and a single Block Grant (3 percent). Award activity peaked in 2015 with 13 grants; prior years ranged from one to four awards annually. Award sizes ranged from under $100 thousand to approximately $854 thousand for single-year obligations, though multi-year cooperative agreements for emerging infectious disease work exceeded $35 million each in federal obligations.
A grant opportunity soliciting research on pandemic response and recovery (RFA-GH-21-004) was posted November 9, 2020, with a deadline of February 18, 2021, and accepted applications from higher education institutions, nonprofits, and for-profit organizations. No current or recently posted opportunities appear active. The program structure permits 1- to 5-year project periods with potential non-competitive continuation based on satisfactory progress and fund availability.

From 2 to 3 months.
