Opportunity Information: Apply for PAR 19 284
The Planning Grant for the Fogarty HIV Research Training Program for Low- and Middle-Income Country Institutions (D71, Clinical Trial Not Allowed) is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding opportunity administered through the Fogarty International Center (FIC). Its central purpose is to help build and strengthen the long-term ability of institutions in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) to design, conduct, and sustain high-quality HIV research that is directly relevant to the changing nature of the HIV epidemic in their own settings. In practice, this opportunity is meant to support planning activities that lay the groundwork for a stronger, locally anchored HIV research training program, rather than funding large-scale research projects or clinical trials.
The program is framed around scientific capacity strengthening, meaning the emphasis is on developing people, systems, and institutional structures that enable HIV research and research training to thrive in LMIC institutions. The grant supports efforts to assess training needs, define priority research areas aligned with local epidemic realities, and create a coherent plan for training and mentorship that can produce a pipeline of competent HIV researchers. Because the HIV epidemic continues to evolve across different regions, the opportunity focuses on building the ability to respond to local scientific and public health questions with rigorous methods, sustainable mentorship, and institutionally supported research training pathways.
This funding opportunity uses the NIH grant mechanism and is categorized under education and health activities, reflecting its training and capacity-building orientation rather than being a standard research project award. It is explicitly labeled "Clinical Trial Not Allowed," which signals that applicants should not propose clinical trial activities as part of the grant. The intention is planning and program development related to HIV research training, not the execution of interventional clinical studies.
Eligibility is centered on non-U.S. entities, with a key emphasis that non-domestic (non-U.S.) organizations and non-domestic (non-U.S.) institutions are eligible to apply. At the same time, non-domestic components of U.S. organizations are not eligible to apply under this opportunity, which distinguishes it from programs that allow overseas branches of U.S. institutions to serve as the applicant organization. Foreign components, as defined by the NIH Grants Policy Statement, are allowed, meaning collaboration structures that meet NIH definitions of foreign components can be part of the overall project arrangement, as long as the applicant eligibility rules are respected.
The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number PAR-19-284 and falls under the discretionary category with a grant funding instrument type. It is associated with CFDA numbers 93.242, 93.279, and 93.989, reflecting the NIH program areas through which support may be accounted. The listed award ceiling is $28,000, which reinforces that this is a small planning grant intended to support preparatory work such as stakeholder engagement, curriculum and mentorship plan development, partnership structuring, needs assessments, and other foundational steps required to build a competitive and sustainable HIV research training program proposal or platform.
Key administrative details include an original closing date of 2021-08-20 and a creation date of 2019-05-14. The expected number of awards is not specified in the provided source data. Overall, this opportunity is best understood as seed funding for LMIC institutions to thoughtfully design and organize an HIV research training approach tailored to local priorities, with the broader Fogarty goal of increasing durable scientific capacity and locally led HIV research in settings most affected by the epidemic.Apply for PAR 19 284
