The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is forecasting a cooperative agreement opportunity titled "Strengthening Public Health Systems in Sierra Leone," aimed at enhancing the resilience of the public health system in Sierra Leone to effectively identify, respond to, and mitigate health threats. The initiative seeks to leverage multisectoral and multilateral partnerships to bolster the country's capacity in areas such as data and surveillance, diagnostics, and public health workforce development, with a focus on preventing emerging infectious disease threats. This discretionary grant, with an estimated total funding of $125 million, anticipates awarding four grants, with applications due by January 1, 2025, and the project expected to commence on September 30, 2025.
