Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH16 17200301SUPP18
Strengthening Public Health Laboratories Internationally is a CDC cooperative agreement funding opportunity designed to help countries build stronger public health laboratory systems as part of the U.S. government Global Health Security Agenda (GHSA). The core idea behind the program is that infectious disease threats do not stay within borders, so improving laboratory capacity overseas supports both local health protection and broader global health security. The work is framed around helping Ministries of Health meet key requirements under the International Health Regulations (IHR 2005) by strengthening the real-world ability to prevent outbreaks where possible, detect emerging threats early, and respond quickly and effectively when events occur, including Public Health Emergencies of International Concern (PHEICs).
The opportunity focuses specifically on laboratory-related programs and activities that improve preparedness and routine capability at the national and regional level. CDC is looking for partners that can collaborate closely with host-country Ministries of Health and, where relevant, coordinate with other U.S. government agencies. Rather than building stand-alone projects, applicants are expected to build on existing public health infrastructure and align activities with country priorities that are mutually agreed upon. The program emphasizes practical capacity building: strengthening systems, developing leadership and workforce skills, improving coordination and partnerships, and supporting integrated health programs that make laboratory services more reliable and useful for surveillance and outbreak response.
Administratively, this is a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement mechanism, which typically means CDC expects substantial involvement during implementation (for example, collaboration on technical approaches, monitoring, and alignment with GHSA/IHR objectives). The funding opportunity number is CDC RFA GH16-17200301SUPP18 under CFDA 93.318. It was issued by the Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), specifically CDC’s Center for Global Health (CGH). The notice was created July 25, 2018, with an original application deadline of August 27, 2018, and electronic submissions required by 11:59 p.m. ET on the due date.
In terms of scale, the award ceiling listed is $10,000,000, with one expected award. Eligibility is listed broadly as “Others,” with details referenced in the additional eligibility information in the full announcement. Overall, the program is aimed at strengthening national and regional laboratory systems so countries are better equipped to identify and confirm infectious disease threats, support surveillance, and mount timely responses, thereby advancing GHSA goals across prevention, detection, and response.Apply for CDC RFA GH16 17200301SUPP18
