Strengthening economic analysis and capacity in support of program management for HIV, TB, and related health threats in South Africa (SA) under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR): The Award Ceiling for Year 1 is 0 (none). CDC anticipates an Approximate Total Fiscal Year Funding amount of $400,000 for Year 1, subject to the availability of funds.The goal of this NOFO is to improve understanding of how investment and program design can make programs and services for HIV, TB, and related health issues in South Africa (SA) more efficient.The focus of this NOFO is to conduct economic analysis, evaluation, and modeling to inform program planning and resource allocation to maintain and improve the HIV related response in South Africa. It also aims to build capacity in this technical area. Additionally, this NOFO uses other economic methodologies (for example, revealed and stated preference models) to understand how key populations and individuals decide to seek and stay in care. PEPFAR SA (i.e., CDC, USAID, Peace Corps) is committed to using evidence to drive programs and priorities. This approach is part of our strategic alignment with SA institutions and efforts to build a sustainable response to HIV, TB, and related health threats. Economic evaluation, analysis, and modeling are critical components of this evidence base. These approaches are also crucial for developing sustainability frameworks and making effective decisions about resource allocation, program design, and implementation. Furthermore, economic analyses help PEPFAR SA and other partners of the government of SA understand how different program policies and implementation models affect expenditure, value, and efficiency. This understanding improves program management and efficiency to increase impact on HIV, TB, and related health issues.
