Centers for Disease Control - CGH

Description

The purpose of this NOFO is to support the implementation of programs and activities that focus on protecting and improving health globally and further implementing Global Health Security Agenda (GHSA) through partnership with the Tanzania Ministry of Health, Community Development, Gender, Elderly and Children (MOHCDGEC). CDC seeks to continue working collaboratively with partners and other United States Government (USG) agencies to achieve specific goals in three main strategic areas: prevent avoidable epidemics, detect threats early, and respond rapidly and effectively to potential events of concern for public health and health security. CDC, through this NOFO, will leverage and complement the MOHCDGEC resources in the following activities: promote national initiatives and frameworks that support International Health Regulations (IHR) (2005) core capacities: detect and reduce biothreats, improve sharing of best practices, use of relevant tools to promote health security, strengthen accountability and transparency of data sharing, and participate in regional and international health security initiatives. The outcomes are to further strengthen capacities to prevent, detect, respond to potential events of concern for public health and health security and demonstrate improvement in at least 5 GHSA/IHR technical areas to a level of “Demonstrated Capacity” as measured by relevant health security assessment in line with GHSA 2024 Framework (https://www.ghsagenda.org/ghsa2024).
