Enhancing Global Health Security: Expanding Efforts and Strategies to Protect and Improve Public Health in Bangladesh

This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) seeks to build upon activities funded by CDC to support Global Health Security (GHS) in Bangladesh through implementation of programs and activities that focus on protecting and improving health globally through partnerships with Ministries of Health and other governmental institutions. After five years of implementing and strengthening global health security systems, the USG will continue to advance prevention, detection, and response strategies to mitigate threats. This NOFO's main outcomes are to: 1) Improve prevention of avoidable epidemics including naturally occurring outbreaks and intentional or accidental releases of dangerous pathogens, 2) Improve ability to rapidly detect threats early, including detecting, characterizing, and reporting emerging biological threats, and 3) Improve capacity of rapidly and effectively responding to infectious diseases and public health threats of international concern.
