OpportunityTitle: Social Science Research in Population and Reproductive Health
AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: US organizations or non-US organizations registered and working in USAID priority countries
Description: The purpose of the APS is to publicize the United States Government&apos;s (USG) plan to fund one award through USAID/Washington&apos;s Office of Population and Reproductive Health (PRH) to support a broad range of social science and behavioral research and technical assistance on a focused set of family planning and reproductive health (FP/RH) issues. The objective of the APS is described below. Funds may support activities that develop and test scalable interventions to achieve social and normative change for FP/RH outcomes; build on existing activities to test evidence-based practices/interventions in new settings; provide technical assistance for replication and scale up of successful interventions; and monitor and evaluate the impact and sustainability of scale up of evidence-based interventions, including evaluation of current or previous activities funded by USAID or other donors. The award under this APS will contribute to PRH&apos;s strategic objective of advancing and supporting FP/RH programs worldwide and health objectives of reducing unintended pregnancies, abortion, and improving maternal and child health. This APS will address two cross-cutting issues for PRH, gender and youth, which are also Agency-wide focal areas as highlighted in USAID&#146;s Youth in Development Policy and Gender Equality and Female Empowerment Policy.
