Opportunity Information: Apply for 72012119RFA00002
USAID, through its Regional Contracting Office in Kyiv, announced a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Support TB Control Efforts in Ukraine" (Funding Opportunity Number 72012119RFA00002). The award instrument is a cooperative agreement, meaning the selected implementer would be expected to work closely with USAID during implementation rather than operating entirely independently. The activity sits in the health sector under CFDA 98.001, and the solicitation anticipated making a single award.
The core aim of the activity is to help reduce Ukraine's tuberculosis epidemic by strengthening the full chain of TB services, with particular attention to drug-resistant TB (DR-TB) and TB/HIV co-infection. The opportunity emphasizes earlier detection of TB, better prevention approaches, and ensuring that people diagnosed with TB receive appropriate care that leads to successful treatment completion. In practical terms, the activity is designed to increase case detection and improve the quality and reach of diagnostics, treatment, and patient care, especially for populations affected by DR-TB and those living with HIV who have heightened TB risks and more complex clinical needs.
A central feature of the opportunity is close coordination with Ukraine's Ministry of Health, specifically supporting and working through the National Center for Public Health. This signals that the activity is meant to reinforce national systems rather than create parallel ones, and that alignment with government policies, protocols, and reporting expectations would be a major implementation requirement. The solicitation highlights improvements to the TB and DR-TB diagnostic system, including practical steps like contact tracing to find additional cases linked to known TB patients. It also calls for strengthening key treatment milestones: timely treatment initiation after diagnosis, support to keep patients on treatment, and improved treatment completion rates.
In addition to clinical and programmatic improvements, the opportunity places clear weight on data systems and performance visibility. It calls for better data reporting, collection, and analysis, which typically includes strengthening routine surveillance and program monitoring so decision-makers can see where cases are being detected, where patients are dropping off the care pathway, and which interventions are producing measurable results. Overall, the opportunity is structured around improving outcomes across the TB cascade in Ukraine, from finding cases earlier, to confirming them with better diagnostics, to ensuring effective treatment and follow-up, while improving the data and coordination needed for sustained national impact.
Eligibility was described as unrestricted within the boundaries of the notice, allowing applications from qualified US or non-US entities, including non-profit and for-profit NGOs and other non-US Government organizations. The opportunity was posted on April 5, 2019, with a full application deadline of May 6, 2019 at 1600 Kyiv local time. The notice did not specify an award ceiling in the provided source details (listed as 0), but it did indicate an expectation of one award.Apply for 72012119RFA00002
