Opportunity Information: Apply for RFA GH 24 033
The grant opportunity titled "Advancing Public Health Research in Bangladesh" (Funding Opportunity Number RFA GH 24 033) is a CDC-funded cooperative agreement focused on strengthening Bangladesh's ability, along with global partners, to detect, prevent, and respond to disease threats using high-quality public health research and surveillance. The overall aim is not just to generate research findings, but to directly support practical public health decision-making and readiness, tying together disease monitoring, laboratory capability, and outbreak response in a way that improves both national and broader global health security.
The funded work is organized around several major activity areas. First, it supports research to measure and understand priority diseases in Bangladesh by determining disease burden, tracking trends over time, identifying causes (etiology), and analyzing risk factors. This kind of work typically informs where public health resources should be concentrated and helps identify which populations face the greatest risk. Second, the cooperative agreement supports developing and testing interventions and diagnostic tools, meaning it can cover work that improves how diseases are prevented and how cases are detected or confirmed. Third, it includes evaluating vaccine effectiveness, with an explicit goal of generating evidence that can inform global vaccination policy. This signals an emphasis on real-world performance of vaccines in the field, rather than only controlled trial results, which is often critical for deciding whether and how vaccines should be deployed at scale.
A fourth core component is capacity strengthening for Bangladesh's public health system, specifically improving surveillance systems, laboratory functions, and outbreak response capability. In practice, this can include making routine disease detection more reliable, improving confirmation of pathogens through stronger lab systems, and increasing the speed and quality of investigations when outbreaks occur. The intent is to make Bangladesh and its partners better prepared for emerging and ongoing health threats, with improvements that last beyond a single project cycle.
Administratively, this opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and uses a cooperative agreement mechanism, which generally implies substantial involvement from the funding agency compared with a standard grant. The awarding agency is the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), listed under "Centers for Disease Control and Prevention - ERA," and the activity category is Health (CFDA/Assistance Listing 93.326). The opportunity anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $6,000,000. The original closing date was March 8, 2024, and the posting was created on December 14, 2023.
Eligibility is restricted: icddr,b (formerly the International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research, Bangladesh) is identified as the sole eligible applicant. That means the award is effectively intended to support work implemented through icddr,b, likely reflecting its longstanding role and technical infrastructure for conducting surveillance, field epidemiology, and applied public health research in Bangladesh.Apply for RFA GH 24 033
