There is nothing the framework provides -- there is no "the" global application (you can have multiple applications running in one process), nor concept of a "current" activity (especially when you mix tabs into the picture).
Given that you know more about what is really going to happen (and not happen) in your process, though, you can fairly easily make your own static and set it as appropriate for retrieval by other code.
