The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is seeking applications for a cooperative agreement from qualified entities to implement the Strengthening Malaria Control for High-Risk Communities Activity. Eligibility for this award is not restricted.
The Strengthening Malaria Control for High-Risk Communities (SMCHC) Activity will expand and strengthen malaria services in high burden communities in Burma and Thailand. SMCHC will strengthen and work through local organizations including community-based organizations (CBOs) in areas where people are at risk of malaria due to increasing malaria incidence. SMCHC contributes to the U.S. President’s Malaria Initiative’s (PMI’s) strategic objectives of reducing malaria deaths and cases in high-burden countries and eliminating malaria in the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS). The Activity will also work to achieve the Agency’s goals to increase
localization by delivering services through local partners and building their capacity for increased impact, ownership, and sustainability of malaria control and prevention services reaching high-risk populations and communities.
Each organization is limited to one application submission under this NOFO as the prime Applicant. Interested applicants from within Duke should contact fundopps@duke.edu as early as possible.
