Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH15 162003CONT17
This funding opportunity is a continuation cooperative agreement from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), specifically through CDCs Center for Global Health (CGH). The program focus is Pakistan FELTP, meaning the Pakistan Field Epidemiology and Laboratory Training Program, with an explicit emphasis on supporting both human and animal disease investigation and providing technical assistance to two key national counterparts: the Pakistan Ministry of Health and the Pakistan Ministry of Agriculture. In practical terms, the opportunity is designed to strengthen Pakistans capacity to detect, investigate, and respond to infectious disease threats across the human and animal health sectors, which is especially relevant for zoonotic diseases that can move between animals and people and for outbreaks where coordination across ministries is essential.
Because the award mechanism is a cooperative agreement (rather than a standard grant), CDC is signaling that it expects substantial involvement in how the work is carried out. Cooperative agreements typically mean closer technical collaboration, shared planning, and ongoing engagement between CDC and the recipient organization(s), such as coordinated workplans, regular reporting, and alignment with CDC technical guidance. The listing is categorized as continuation funding, which generally indicates this is not a brand-new standalone competition but rather continued support for an existing project or set of activities under an established program. The opportunity number is CDC RFA GH15 162003CONT17, and it falls under the health funding activity category with CFDA number 93.283 (CDC cooperative agreements related to public health preparedness and response activities, depending on the specific program structure).
The core purpose reflected in the title and description is to sustain and expand the operational and workforce capabilities associated with field epidemiology and laboratory training in Pakistan, while also improving the countrys ability to conduct timely disease investigations in both human and animal populations. That typically includes activities such as training and mentoring epidemiologists and public health practitioners, supporting outbreak investigations, strengthening surveillance and reporting systems, improving coordination between health and agriculture authorities, and enhancing laboratory-epidemiology linkages so that field investigations are backed by appropriate diagnostic testing and data interpretation. It also suggests a One Health orientation, where public health and veterinary/public sector animal health systems coordinate around shared risks like avian influenza, rabies, brucellosis, anthrax, and other zoonotic or emerging threats.
The opportunity indicates an expected 10 awards. The award ceiling is listed as 0, which in government postings often means the ceiling is either not specified in this notice, varies by recipient or budget period, is determined by available appropriations, or is otherwise provided in related documentation rather than in the summary field. The eligible applicant category is listed as Others, with a note to consult the additional eligibility text for clarification. In many CDC global health continuation cooperative agreements, eligible applicants can include specific organizations already involved in the work, such as implementing partners, academic institutions, non-profits, or other entities with demonstrated capacity and an existing relationship to the program, but the exact eligibility limitation would be defined in the full announcement package.
Administrative details provided in the source data show the opportunity was created on May 03, 2017, with an original closing date of May 19, 2017, implying a relatively short submission window consistent with continuation actions. The issuing agency is CDC CGH, indicating the work is aligned with CDCs global health priorities and technical assistance model rather than domestic programming.
Overall, this opportunity is best understood as CDC continuing to invest in Pakistans epidemiology and laboratory training and its outbreak investigation capacity, while helping the government strengthen cross-sector collaboration between human health and animal health authorities. The intended outcome is a more capable national system for early detection and rapid response to outbreaks, improved technical skills and leadership in epidemiology and laboratory practice, and stronger institutional ties and workflows between the ministries responsible for public health and agriculture, which is crucial for preventing, identifying, and controlling diseases that threaten health security and stability.Apply for CDC RFA GH15 162003CONT17
