Purpose
This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) invites applications from clinical centers to participate in a consortium to test anti-obesity medication (AOM) treatment strategies for youth with obesity that maximize benefits and minimize risks of AOM use. Such intervention strategies should support the promotion of healthy growth and development; adequate nutritional status/intake, healthy eating and physical activity behaviors; mental health and well-being (e.g., body image, self-esteem, mood, etc.), and quality of life and be feasible to implement in clinical care settings. Priority areas include testing strategies to determine optimal developmental stage for AOM initiation, rate and amount of weight loss, AOM class, dose, frequency, and duration, and content and intensity of adjunct lifestyle therapies that may be imperative to ensure normal psychological and physical development and to potentially avoid lifelong dependence on AOMs.  Investigators should also evaluate potential predictors of response/ nonresponse to various treatment strategies under evaluation. The clinical centers may conduct independent or multicenter trials but will collaborate on the development of protocols, use of common measures and data elements, use of a central laboratory and standardized procedures to collect data and biospecimens, and data analyses and manuscripts.

Executive Summary
Pax Silica is the Department’s flagship programmatic and policy initiative to strengthen global Artificial Intelligence (AI) supply chain security, advancing new economic security consensus among allies and trusted partners.  This U.S.-led initiative is working at speed to build a secure, resilient, innovation-driven technology ecosystem spanning critical minerals, energy, advanced manufacturing, semiconductors, AI infrastructure, and logistics.  The Pax Silica Fund, including funds appropriated to the Department of State under the International Technology Security and Innovation Fund, supports programming with partner economies that advances President Trump’s America’s AI Action Plan, Executive Order 14320 on Promoting the Export of the American AI Technology Stack, and 14179 on Removing Barriers to American Leadership in Artificial Intelligence. The Pax Fund does this by disrupting strategic competitors’ efforts to disrupt secure and reliable semiconductor supply chains and critical emerging technologies, including AI, biotechnologies, quantum, semiconductor, and space technologies. Specifically, the Pax Fund provides seed funding for innovative pilot projects to leverage international partnerships that reduce coercive dependencies, secure global technology supply chains, address AI supply chain opportunities and vulnerabilities, explore joint investment, protect sensitive technologies, and build trusted digital infrastructure. Through Pax Silica, the United States partners with the world’s most advanced economies in the strategic regions of the Indo-Pacific, Europe, the Middle East, and Latin America to outcompete strategic competitors for decades-long economic partnerships, generating multi-billion dollar deals for U.S. companies and creating thousands of American jobs with every success. Leveraging foreign assistance from the Pax Fund, this NOFO launches the Pax Silica Artificial Intelligence (AI) Assistance Project—a historic first-of-its-kind programmatic initiative to strengthen global AI supply chain security by creating a trusted supply chain credentialing and provenance platform to secure the AI supply chain in partner countries and economies.

Executive Summary
The U.S. Department of State’s Consulate General Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam and U.S. Consulate General Surabaya, Indonesia announces an open competition to implement a program to organizations.

In 2024, trade in goods and services between the United States and ASEAN reached almost $572 billion, supporting over 625,000 American jobs. As a hub for some of the world’s most important manufacturers and shipping routes, Southeast Asia depends on secure, resilient, and diversified supply chains grounded in fair and reciprocal trade practices. President Trump’s America First foreign policy prioritizes secure supply chains that strengthen U.S. economic and national security while advancing cooperation with allies and partners. This is especially important in the critical minerals sector, where the United States is working with regional partners to diversify supply chains in alignment with Executive Order 14154, “Unleashing American Energy.” 

Against this backdrop, the Young Southeast Asian Leaders Initiative (YSEALI) will host a regional workshop titled Securing Supply Chains: Market Opportunities in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. U.S. Consulate General Ho Chi Minh City and U.S. Consulate General Surabaya seek proposals to design and implement a four-day workshop in Vietnam and Indonesia for up to 55 ASEAN leaders ages 22–35 occurring in May 2027. Vietnam and Indonesia represent two of the most promising markets for increased commercial cooperation with the United States and bring complementary expertise in critical minerals (Indonesia) and in integrated and resilient supply chains (Vietnam). 

Participants will examine supply chain resilience, critical minerals, and emerging technologies such as blockchain and AI through case studies, interactive exercises, and collaborative problem- solving. The program will equip early-stage professionals with practical skills to strengthen regional supply chains, support informed investment decisions, and advance U.S. and Southeast Asian prosperity and security.

Summary 
The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to decrease the impact of specific parasitic infections in the U.S. with public health practices and disease control strategies. The NOFO focuses on three parasitic infection areas: 
• Chagas disease.
• Soil-transmitted helminths. 
• Other parasitic diseases of domestic concern in the U.S. 

This NOFO will continue CDC’s Parasitic Disease Branch work to help healthcare providers (HCPs) better understand, detect, treat, and prevent parasitic infections. Improved understanding and management of parasitic diseases in the U.S. will help make Americans stronger, safer, and more prosperous. There are three components of this NOFO. You may apply for only one: 
• Component A will improve HCPs’ knowledge and practices. Increase testing and management of people with or at risk of Chagas disease. Expand the use of best practices, training tools, and materials. 
• Component B will strengthen public health efforts to monitor and control soil-transmitted helminth infections (like hookworm). It focuses on areas in the Southeastern U.S. (as defined by the U.S. Census Bureau) that are historically affected. 
• Component C will target the prevention, control, health education, and, where applicable, elimination of other parasitic diseases in the U.S. Diseases include cyclosporiasis, cysticercosis, echinococcosis, leishmaniasis, lymphatic filariasis, and toxoplasmosis.

We will not accept proposals focused on malaria, amoebiasis,cryptosporidiosis, giardiasis, or any international activities. Your strategies should aim for significant public health benefits and reach a large portion of at-risk populations.
