Cooperative Agreement With the Joint United Nations Programme on
HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) Through the World Health Organization (WHO) as Bona
Fide Agent; Notice of Intent To Fund Single Eligibility Award
A. Purpose
The purpose of the program is to support the field-centered
technical collaborations between the U.S. Government and the United
Nations in support of national HIV/AIDS programs and strategies in
priority countries. In particular, CDC Global AIDS Program and the
Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) will serve as
primary collaborators on behalf of their organizational counterparts
and, through this program, facilitate the technical cooperation between
the U.S. Government and the United Nations.
The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance number for this program
is 93.067.
B. Eligible Applicant
Applications may only be submitted by the Joint United Nations
Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS), through a Bona Fide agent, if
necessary.
A Bona Fide Agent is an agency/organization identified by the
applicant as eligible to submit an application under the UNAIDS
eligibility in lieu of an application submitted directly by UNAIDS.
This is done specifically in recognition that WHO is the bona fide
agent for HIV/AIDS as it relates to the receipt of external funds for
program implementation. In applying as a bona fide agent of UNAIDS, WHO
must provide a letter from UNAIDS as documentation of its status. Place
this documentation behind the first page of your application form.
C. Funding
Approximately $2,000,000 is available in FY 2005 to fund this
award. It is expected that the award will begin on or before August 31,
2005, and will be made for a 12-month budget period within a project
period of up to four years. Funding estimates may change.
