What it funds

Official synopsis as published by the agency, formatted for readability.

The United States Government, represented by the Agency for International Development (USAID), Global Health Bureau (GH), Office of Health, Infectious Diseases, and Nutrition (HIDN), proposes to enter into a Cooperative Agreement for the implementation of the Technologies for Health activity specifically described in Section I of the RFA. To this end, USAID is seeking applications from eligible institutions as described in Section III of the RFA. The authority for the RFA is found in the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended.USAID seeks to award up to two five-year cooperative agreements (combined total of $50 million) to identify, develop, introduce, and support the scale-up of new health tools and technologies which are appropriate, affordable, and acceptable for distribution and use in low-resource settings, in order to accelerate reductions in mortality and morbidity in line with USAID health sector objectives. The Technologies for Health Program will play an important role in advancing USAID's leadership in health technology innovation by providing the Agency with access to leading technical and scientific expertise in the US and other countries devoted to health research, technology development, scientific research, and market development. In the course of this work, the Technologies for Health Program also will develop strong partnerships with the private sector, host countries, local organizations, private firms and other development partners in developing countries.
