Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH18 1829
The grant opportunity titled "Infrastructure Support to the Mozambican Health System to Scale-Up HIV/AIDS and TB Services on Behalf of PEPFAR" is a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cooperative agreement designed to strengthen Mozambique's public health infrastructure so the Ministry of Health (MOH) can expand and sustain HIV and tuberculosis (TB) services. The core idea is straightforward: many HIV and TB program targets depend on clinics and laboratories having enough physical space, functional workflows, storage capacity, and the right equipment. This funding is meant to help remove those bottlenecks by pairing practical infrastructure improvements with technical assistance, using an approach aligned with PEPFAR priorities and Mozambique's national plans.
The program focuses on supporting MOH clinics and facilities that deliver HIV and TB services across the full clinical cascade, meaning improvements are intended to help with everything from testing and diagnosis to treatment initiation, ongoing patient follow-up, and laboratory monitoring. Rather than prescribing one uniform construction model, the notice emphasizes flexible "alternative solutions" tailored to local needs. Depending on the site, that could include renovations to existing buildings, installation of pre-fabricated (pre-fab) structures, and/or procurement of equipment that directly improves service delivery. The examples given point to common pinch points in health systems: warehouses and storage areas that protect commodities, pharmacies that can handle higher dispensing volumes, laboratories that can process more tests reliably, and medium-sized health units that can expand clinical space where patient loads are growing.
Site selection is explicitly tied to MOH and PEPFAR priorities, signaling that investments are expected to be strategic rather than opportunistic. Facilities supported under the award may be spread across the country and can include both rural and urban settings, which suggests implementers would need to manage work in multiple locations with different logistical constraints, construction realities, and service delivery patterns. The intended outcome is to increase the maximum patient capacity of facilities providing HIV services, which is framed as a direct contribution to Mozambique's broader goal of achieving epidemic control and advancing national HIV strategic goals, while also strengthening TB service capacity where it intersects with HIV care.
Administratively, this is a discretionary funding opportunity under a cooperative agreement, which typically means CDC would remain substantially involved in oversight, planning, and monitoring rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal engagement. The opportunity number is CDC RFA GH18 1829, and it was issued by the Centers for Disease Control - CGH. Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, implying a wide range of applicant organizations could apply. The original closing date was 2017-11-14, the anticipated award ceiling was $10,000,000, and CDC expected to make 2 awards. The CFDA program numbers associated with the opportunity are 93.067 and 93.338, reflecting the federal assistance programs through which the funding is administered.Apply for CDC RFA GH18 1829
