OpportunityTitle: Building Capacity for National Public Health Institutes
AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: This is an open competition NOFO.
Description: Consolidating and organizing public health expertise and systems within a National Public Health Institute (NPHI) is a successful way for countries to carry out essential public health functions and improve their accountability and efficiency. The CDC, with over 70 years of experience as the U.S. NPHI, is helping countries around the world increase surveillance, laboratory, and outbreak response capacity to improve recognition of and response to health threats. An NPHI coupled with stronger local outbreak detection and response capabilities offers a sustainable solution for building global public health capacity, achieving global health security, and increasing public health impact. This Notice of Funding Award (NOFO) seeks to build upon activities supported by CDC through partnerships with Ministries of Health, National Public Health Institutes, and organizations that have capacity by providing technical assistance supporting the establishment and development of strong NPHI&apos;s globally. The CDC seeks to continue strengthening NPHI&apos;s so that they are credible, technically expert, apolitical and prioritize the protection of the publics&#8217; health.
