Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH12 125004CONT16
The grant opportunity titled "Quality of Care and Health Impact through Sustainable, Integrated, Innovative Information System Technologies in Malawi under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)" is a continuation funding announcement issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the technical direction or oversight of the work rather than simply providing funds with minimal interaction. The overall program area is health, and it sits within the PEPFAR context, pointing to an HIV/AIDS-focused initiative where improved information systems are used as a practical lever to strengthen service delivery, monitor outcomes, and support quality improvement across Malawi's health sector.
A key feature of this announcement is that it is not an open competition. The notice explicitly states that the award is a continuation of funds intended only for recipients previously funded under the earlier funding announcement "CDC-RFA-GH12-1250" with the same program title. In other words, eligibility is effectively limited to existing grantees already operating under that original award, and the purpose of the continuation is to maintain or extend work that has already been initiated and aligned with CDC and PEPFAR priorities in Malawi. The eligible applicant category is listed broadly as "Others," but the continuation-only language makes clear that this is restricted in practice to incumbent awardees.
From the title and framing, the core intent of the project is to improve quality of care and health impact by strengthening information system technologies in a way that is sustainable, integrated, and innovative. That combination usually signals a focus on building systems that can be maintained locally over time, that connect across programs or levels of the health system rather than operating as isolated databases, and that introduce more effective technological approaches to data capture, reporting, analysis, and use. Within a PEPFAR setting, this commonly supports stronger HIV program monitoring and evaluation, patient management and continuity of care, facility-level and national reporting, and data-driven decision-making that can translate into better clinical outcomes and more efficient program implementation.
Administratively, the opportunity is identified by the funding opportunity number "CDC RFA GH12 125004CONT16" and is associated with CFDA number 93.067. The announcement record shows an original closing date of December 5, 2015, and a creation date of October 5, 2015. The award ceiling is listed as 0, which in grant postings often indicates that a specific maximum amount was not stated in the public synopsis, is determined by continuation budgets, or is otherwise handled internally based on the existing award structure and availability of funds. The number of expected awards is not provided in the synopsis, which is consistent with a continuation action where the pool of potential recipients is already defined by the existing set of awardees under the predecessor funding opportunity.
In practical terms, this continuation notice functions less like a typical new grant solicitation and more like an administrative mechanism to extend ongoing work. It supports the continued operation, enhancement, or scaling of information systems activities that are already underway in Malawi under CDC oversight and PEPFAR support, with the underlying goal of using better, more integrated health information technologies to improve the quality of HIV-related services and the measurable health impact of those services.Apply for CDC RFA GH12 125004CONT16
