Description of Collaborative Activity: |
PEFPAR is governed by intra-agency groups, including NIH, CDC, and HRSA for HHS. CDC has a large role as an implementing partner for PEPFAR, while NIH has limited their activities to providing technical expertise on issues related to safety and efficacy of elements for PEPFAR programs, and to facilitating evaluation of PEPFAR through NIH funded investigators. The Agencies work together to set research and evaluation priorities for PEPFAR. In previous years, this was done through the PHE process, and in FY10 a specific funding announcement was made with supplement awards through NIH Institutes and Centers. NIH takes an active role in reviewing and making recommendations for the PHE process, CDC and HRSA were actively involved in the review process for the NIH supplement applications. |
