Health Collaborations, 0925-NEW, National Cancer Institute (NCI), 
National Institutes of Health (NIH).
    Need and Use of Information Collection: The Center for Global 
Health's (CGH) Low and Mid-Income Countries (LMICs) Global Health 
Collaborations is proposing new program specific progress report 
guidelines. The CGH LMIC Global Health Collaborations are part of a 
pilot initiative and partnership, between the NCI CGH and the Office of 
Cancer Centers (OCC), to promote collaborations between the NCI 
designated Cancer Centers and foreign institutions from Low and Middle 
Income Countries (LMICs). This collaboration is designed to develop and 
implement mutually beneficial global cancer research programs by 
increasing the capability of these countries to participate and partner 
in cancer research. The proposed guidelines request information about 
award performance related to objectives, accomplishments, barriers and 
challenges, collaborators, and findings. The information is gathered 
six months into the award and 12 months after the award (upon expiry). 
This information is needed to monitor the performance of this special 
program within NCI, funded through three Request for Proposals (RFPs); 
the first was released April 18, 2013 and CGH expects to release 
another in 2014 and the final one in 2015. The respondents are the 
Principal Investigators of the awards. The information will be used to 
monitor individual award performance and the effectiveness of the 
program as a whole. Since these projects are funded through the 
contract mechanism, the PIs will not be required to submit interim and 
final progress reports like other National Institutes of Health 
grantees must.
    OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to 
respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized 
burden hours are 83.
