Opportunity Information: Apply for RFA CK 19 001
The grant opportunity titled "Identification, Surveillance, and Control of Vector-Borne and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases in Uganda" (Funding Opportunity Number RFA CK 19 001) was issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under its ERA system. It was offered as a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement mechanism, which typically means the recipient would carry out the project with substantial involvement from CDC staff, such as technical guidance, coordination support, and shared oversight of key activities rather than operating entirely independently. The activity category is health, and the relevant CFDA listing is 93.084.
The central goal of the project is research focused on Uganda, aimed at investigating and characterizing both environmental and clinical dimensions of specific infectious diseases that are either vector-borne (spread through vectors such as mosquitoes, ticks, or other arthropods) or zoonotic (transmitted between animals and humans). In practical terms, the scope points to work that connects what is happening in the environment and animal populations with what is being seen in human clinical settings, then uses that understanding to develop and evaluate ways to prevent, manage, or control these diseases. The emphasis on identification, surveillance, and control suggests an end-to-end approach: detecting and confirming pathogens or outbreaks, building or strengthening systems that track disease occurrence and risk over time, and translating findings into actionable interventions.
The funding notice anticipated a single award, with an award ceiling of $3,000,000. This structure implies a focused, potentially national-level or multi-institution effort in Uganda rather than multiple smaller projects spread across different recipients. While the eligibility category is listed as "Others" with additional eligibility details referenced elsewhere in the full announcement, the framing indicates the program expected an applicant capable of conducting applied infectious disease research and surveillance work in Uganda, likely with strong local operational access and the ability to coordinate across human health, animal health, and environmental sectors.
Key administrative details include the creation date of September 17, 2018, and an original closing date of November 20, 2018. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Overall, the opportunity was designed to support a comprehensive effort in Uganda that improves understanding of priority vector-borne and zoonotic threats and strengthens the evidence base for practical control measures that address both clinical disease and environmental drivers of transmission.Apply for RFA CK 19 001
