Opportunity Information: Apply for 7200AA19RFA00004
The One Health Workforce (OHW) Next Generation opportunity is a USAID Emerging Threats Division initiative focused on strengthening the people and institutions needed to prevent, detect, and respond to infectious disease threats. The central idea is that managing disease risks at the human-animal-environment interface takes more than strong technical experts in separate fields. It requires a workforce trained to collaborate across sectors and disciplines, using shared One Health competencies so that ministries, laboratories, universities, and frontline professionals can coordinate effectively and sustain results over time.
USAID signaled that it planned to engage the broader international development and higher education communities before finalizing the activity by hosting two pre-application conferences: one in Washington, DC on November 29, 2018, and another in London, UK on December 7, 2018. These meetings were intended to brief interested organizations and discuss an upcoming Request for Information (RFI) expected to be released roughly 30 days after the notice. The RFI was designed to collect feedback from stakeholders, particularly universities and training institutions, to shape the design of the eventual program. The notice emphasizes that this is not a commitment to award and that the RFI (posted on Grants.gov) would be the proper channel for formal questions and comments once released.
Programmatically, OHW Next Generation is positioned as a continuation and expansion of USAID investments made over nearly a decade in two major regional One Health university networks: One Health Central and East Africa (OHCEA), based in Kampala, Uganda, and the Southeast Asian One Health University Network (SEAOHUN), based in Chiangmai, Thailand. Together these networks include 144 schools and faculties across 84 universities in 12 countries. Under the new activity, USAID planned to build on that foundation by strengthening the organizational capacity of OHCEA and SEAOHUN so they can do three big things more effectively: (1) use assessments of multisectoral workforce capacity to guide what training and education should look like and how it should be adapted over time; (2) develop and deliver educational offerings aligned to prioritized One Health core competencies and technical skills; and (3) improve their ability to obtain and manage direct donor funding, which points to a longer-term sustainability goal beyond USAID support.
From a funding and awards standpoint, the opportunity is categorized as a discretionary health activity, using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. USAID anticipated making a single award, with an award ceiling listed at up to USD 85,000,000, indicating a large, multi-year platform intended to operate at scale. The lead awardee was expected to be a qualified higher education institution that could represent and manage a coalition of universities and other public and private sector partners. In this structure, OHCEA and SEAOHUN are described as beneficiary institutions, meaning the awardee and its coalition would work with and strengthen these networks rather than replace them.
The pre-application conference logistics were managed through an RSVP process with limited capacity. Organizations were asked to send no more than two participants and to balance technical and business/administrative representation (for example, pairing One Health technical expertise with grants or financial management capacity). RSVPs had to be emailed to ohwnextgen@usaid.gov with a specific subject line indicating the conference location, and they had to include each participant's name, title, organization, email, and phone number. Attendance was only permitted for those who received an email acknowledgment from USAID, and RSVPs were accepted until capacity was reached or until Friday, November 23, 2018. USAID also stated it would not reimburse travel or related costs, and it noted that all information in the notice was subject to change.
Key identifiers from the notice include the funding opportunity title "One Health Workforce (OHW) Next Generation," funding opportunity number 7200AA19RFA00004, CFDA number 98.001, and the sponsoring agency listed as the U.S. Agency for International Development. Eligibility was described broadly (with details referenced in an eligibility section not included in the excerpt), but the core expectation was that the prime would be a higher education institution capable of leading a coalition and working closely with the two regional networks to strengthen One Health training systems and institutional capacity.Apply for 7200AA19RFA00004
