Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH19 1946
This funding opportunity (CDC RFA GH19-1946) is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cooperative agreement under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services that focuses on strengthening tuberculosis (TB) services in resource-limited countries through a formal partnership with the International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease (The Union). The public health need driving the announcement is the continued global scale of TB despite the fact that it is preventable and treatable: in 2016 there were an estimated 10.4 million new TB cases and about 1.7 million TB deaths. The notice highlights that roughly one quarter of the world population, around 2 billion people, are infected, and that millions progress to active disease each year. A major gap identified is missed diagnosis and linkage to care, with an estimated 4.3 million people going undiagnosed annually and therefore not receiving appropriate treatment. The opportunity also emphasizes the growing threat of drug-resistant TB and the severe overlap between TB and HIV, noting TB as the leading cause of death among people living with HIV. The rationale is that controlling TB globally is not only a humanitarian and development priority but also an essential part of protecting the United States from an infectious disease that crosses borders and carries high human and economic costs.
The main purpose of the award is to build sustainable and effective systems that improve the quality and reach of TB services and, ultimately, contribute to ending the global TB epidemic. The work is framed around strengthening national and local TB control efforts in countries with limited resources by increasing the adoption and use of recommended strategies and guidelines that can interrupt TB transmission and improve outcomes. In practical terms, the announcement points to expanding access to accurate diagnosis and effective treatment, which speaks to improving how quickly and reliably TB is detected, ensuring that patients are started on appropriate regimens, and supporting completion of treatment so transmission is reduced and resistance is less likely to develop. Because drug-resistant TB is singled out as a serious threat, the intention is also to support approaches that help systems recognize and manage resistant disease more effectively within the constraints of low-resource settings.
A central component of the approach is capacity building through training and technical exchange. The opportunity describes providing training and access for health officials, health professionals, and health care workers to up-to-date TB science, epidemiology, and clinical information. That implies a strong emphasis on workforce development and ongoing professional education so that frontline providers and program managers can apply current evidence-based practices, implement recommended program strategies, and improve service delivery quality. The cooperative agreement structure typically signals that CDC expects substantial involvement in the project through collaboration, technical input, and shared oversight rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal engagement.
Administratively, the award is categorized as discretionary funding and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. The CFDA number is 93.947, and the expected number of awards is one, indicating a single recipient is anticipated for this specific partnership effort. The listed award ceiling is $500,000. The opportunity was created on January 15, 2019, with an original application closing date of March 16, 2019, and electronic submissions required by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Eligibility is broadly noted as "Others" with clarification referenced in an additional eligibility section, but the intent of the notice is clearly centered on partnering with The Union to carry out the described global TB service strengthening and training activities in resource-limited settings.Apply for CDC RFA GH19 1946
