The period for this award will be September 1, 2022, through August 31, 2027. DATES: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ericka Lowe Marvin, National Center for Injury Prevention and Control, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 4770 Buford Highway, MS S106–10, Atlanta, GA 30341, Telephone: 800– 232–6348, email: ERL2@cdc.gov. Both injuries and violence are leading causes of death around the world. These deaths occur due to road traffic crashes, falls, drownings, other unintentional injuries, and from acts of interpersonal violence. However, this represents a fraction of the problem, as tens of millions more suffer injuries that lead to hospitalization or other medical care. Many of those who survive injuries are left with temporary or permanent disabilities. Additionally, victims of physical, sexual, and emotional abuse suffer from a range of chronic conditions, diseases, and mental health problems throughout their lifetimes. The objective of this award is to continue to raise awareness of these issues; measure the scope of the problem; and implement evidencebased solutions that will be relevant for violence and injury prevention efforts globally, including the United States. WHO is in a unique position to conduct this work, as it is responsible for providing leadership on global health matters, shaping the health research agenda, articulating evidencebased policy options, providing technical support to countries, and monitoring and assessing health trends. WHO is the directing and coordinating authority for health within the United Nations. As a UN agency, it has a relationship with many national governments, which allows access to vital records and other governmental surveillance systems. Additionally, WHO has access to government staff who would conduct training related to violence and injury prevention nationally. The WHO has a mandate under a variety of UN General Assembly and World Health Assembly Resolutions to coordinate the efforts of UN agencies to work together to prevent injuries and violence in developing countries.
