SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Centers for Disease Control and Prevention President’s Malaria Initiative Announcement Type: New. Funding Opportunity Number: AA197. Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance Number: 93.283. Key Dates: Application Deadline: September 2, 2005. I. Funding Opportunity Description Authority: This program is authorized under sections 307 and 317(k)(2) of the PO 00000 Frm 00098 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Public Health Service Act, [42 U.S.C. sections 242l and 247b(k)(2)], as amended. Purpose: The purpose of the program is to support malaria prevention and control and relevant ancillary activities (e.g., baseline evaluation, strategy development, training, monitoring and program evaluation) in the countries included in President Bush’s initiative to fight malaria in Africa. On June 30, 2005, the President pledged to increase U.S. Government funding of malaria prevention and treatment by more than $1 billion over five years. The President made this commitment through the G–8 process as the U.S. contribution to a larger international effort needed to reduce malaria deaths, and called on other donors, foundations, private, public, and voluntary organizations to match U.S. commitments by providing $1.2 billion annually in additional funding by 2008. The President’s commitment will more than triple the current U.S. funding of malaria prevention and treatment programs in Africa, and is in addition to the $200 million each year the United States spends today on malaria prevention, treatment, and research. It will increase U.S. funding for malaria to more than $500 million annually. The current U.S. Government malaria budget for Fiscal Year (FY) 2005 is $213.6 million, and of that amount the operating budget of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) provides $102.4 million, or nearly half of that amount. The U.S. Government is also currently supporting malaria control and prevention through the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, which has so far been the largest vehicle for U.S. Government assistance to anti-malaria activities; the Global Fund has invested over $1 billion in malaria and prevention control activities over two years, roughly one-third underwritten by the U.S. contribution to the Global Fund. These additional resources will complement those of the Global Fund and the World Bank’s malaria program. The President will launch the initiative first in three countries: Angola, Tanzania and Uganda. (Uganda and Tanzania are also countries under the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief), and will add publicprivate partnerships in Equatorial Guinea and Zambia in FY 2006. Over the next several years, the initiative could expand, with other partner involvement, to a maximum of 25 E:\FR\FM\03AUN1.SGM 03AUN1
