OpportunityTitle: Integrated Youth Activity
Description: Dear Prospective Applicants: The United States Government, as represented by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Mission, Ethiopia (USAID/Ethiopia), is seeking a Concept Note from prospective applicants for the USAID/Ethiopia Integrated Youth Activity, subject to the availability of funds. Through the Integrated Youth Activity (IYA) addendum to the YouthPower 2 (YP2) Annual Program Statement (APS) No.7200AA20APS00007, USAID/Ethiopia seeks an integrated, holistic approach - incorporating basic education, higher education, and family planning resources - to empower youth to advance their own social, economic, and civic development. Simultaneously, the activity seeks to strengthen the capacity of Ethiopian higher education institutions, youth-serving organizations, and health and financial service providers to support economic and social opportunities for youth. This integrated, cross-sectoral activity will focus on 15-29 year old youth in Addis Ababa and 10-15 key secondary cities. Subject to the availability of funds, USAID/Ethiopia anticipates supporting up to one new award of up to a total of $60 million over the course of 5 years, though USAID reserves the right to award more or fewer awards than this estimate and is not obligated to make any awards. Planned sources of funding and approximate percentages of the total IYA budget include: basic education (40 percent), family planning (30 percent), and higher education (30 percent). Applicants should base their Concept Notes on the percentages stated and make note of any cost share and/or leverage from other sources to supplement IYA objectives. Please review the NOFO for further information. Thank you!
