Summary
This notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is issued by the Division of Global HIV and Tuberculosis, aimed at strengthening Namibia's health information systems (HIS) to enhance public health programs under the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR).
The application deadline is set for February 20, 2025, with an expected award start date of September 30, 2025. The funding opportunity number is CDC-RFA-JG-25-0093, and it anticipates a total funding amount of $500,000 for the first year, with the possibility of awarding between one to three grants based on available funds and program priorities. Projects are expected to span five years, with annual budget periods.
The primary objective of this NOFO is to provide technical assistance to the Government of Namibia in implementing HIS, monitoring and evaluation strategies, and surveillance activities aimed at controlling HIV and tuberculosis (TB) epidemics.
Key strategies include improving data access across various systems, enhancing surveillance capabilities led by the Ministry of Health and Social Services (MOHSS), and introducing technology to automate processes. Eligible applicants include a wide range of organizations such as state governments, nonprofits, educational institutions, and foreign entities; however, all projects must be conducted within Namibia. Notably, local partners will receive a preference during the selection process.
In addition to addressing eligibility criteria and application requirements, applicants are encouraged to develop their proposals around specific components that align with quarterly targets for program activities. High-quality data is essential for monitoring program outcomes and informing national policies. Furthermore, there are no cost-sharing requirements but voluntary contributions are encouraged if applicable.
This NOFO represents a significant opportunity for organizations looking to contribute to public health improvements in Namibia through enhanced data management and system integration efforts.
