Opportunity Information: Apply for 72066023RFA00002
USAID/DRC is soliciting applications for a Cooperative Agreement using a Fixed Amount Award (FAA) structure to implement the Combating HIV/AIDS Through Local Partnership Activity (CHALPA) in Kinshasa. This opportunity is part of USAID's broader PEPFAR-supported HIV response in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and is designed to strengthen and expand high-quality, accessible HIV/AIDS services in targeted areas with the aim of moving toward HIV epidemic control. The Kinshasa award is one of three planned CHALPA activities across the provinces of Kinshasa, Lualaba, and Haut-Katanga, with the solicitations for the other two provinces to be released separately.
The Kinshasa CHALPA award is expected to support service delivery in five health zones, although USAID notes that the number and selection of supported health zones could change based on PEPFAR priorities and guidance from the Government of the DRC (GDRC). The activity is meant to be comprehensive at the provincial level, covering core components needed for HIV epidemic control while also integrating programming for Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC) and including services for certain key populations (KPs). A stated purpose of this design is to enable a smooth transition and continuity of existing key population programming that has been implemented under the EpiC project, rather than creating gaps as responsibilities shift to new local partners.
Coordination and collaboration are central expectations of the award. The CHALPA implementer in Kinshasa will be expected to work closely with the GDRC and align with the broader USAID and PEPFAR partner portfolio already operating in the country. USAID specifically anticipates collaboration with existing and incoming implementers across the overall HIV platform, citing partners such as EpiC/360, IHP/ABT, and the Chemonics Francophone Task Order. In practical terms, this implies strong emphasis on interoperability of service delivery approaches, referral networks, and alignment of program strategies so that HIV testing, treatment, prevention, and support services reinforce one another rather than functioning as disconnected projects.
Eligibility is restricted to local entities as defined in USAID policy (ADS 303.6), reflecting the intent to place leadership and implementation responsibility with Congolese organizations. USAID anticipates making one award for Kinshasa, with an estimated maximum funding level (award ceiling) of USD 14,900,000. The funding opportunity is listed as discretionary, categorized under health assistance (CFDA 98.001), and was issued by USAID-Kinshasa under funding opportunity number 72066023RFA00002. Applications were due July 11, 2023 at 18:00 Kinshasa time, and applicants are directed to the full Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for complete requirements, technical expectations, and submission instructions.Apply for 72066023RFA00002
