Opportunity Information: Apply for 72066321RFA00007
The Social and Behavior Change for Health (SBCH) Activity is a USAID/Ethiopia competitive funding opportunity for a cooperative agreement focused on improving health outcomes in Ethiopia through social and behavior change approaches. The opportunity is issued by the U.S. Agency for International Development, Mission in Ethiopia, and is designed to fund one implementing partner to carry out the SBCH Activity, assuming funds are available. USAID signals that it will select the applicant that best aligns with the program objectives and performs strongest against the merit review criteria laid out in the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), while also considering the results of a required risk assessment.
This is a discretionary grant opportunity (Opportunity Category: Discretionary) using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, which typically means substantial involvement by USAID during implementation compared with a standard grant. The activity falls under the Health funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 98.001. The NOFO indicates a single expected award with a total funding ceiling of up to USD 35,000,000, making it a large-scale award intended for an organization with the technical capacity, operational systems, and compliance readiness to manage a complex health behavior change program in partnership with USAID.
Eligibility is stated as unrestricted, meaning any type of qualified entity may apply, subject to any specific eligibility conditions and standards described in Section C of the NOFO. USAID emphasizes that applicants must submit all required information exactly as specified and must meet the eligibility standards in the solicitation to be considered for award. The agency also highlights that the decision will be based on how well the application meets the objectives and the stated evaluation criteria, not simply on eligibility alone.
Applications must be submitted through Grants.gov under Funding Opportunity Number 72066321RFA00007. The posting date (Creation Date) is August 26, 2021, and the original application deadline is October 10, 2021, by 1700 Addis Ababa time. USAID notes that the opportunity may be amended, and applicants are responsible for checking Grants.gov regularly to ensure they have the most current version of the NOFO and any updates, including formal responses to applicant questions. Questions must be sent to the points of contact listed in Section D of the NOFO by the question deadline stated in the announcement, and USAID plans to share responses with all potential applicants via an amendment posted on Grants.gov to ensure all applicants receive the same information.
A key compliance requirement is that USAID may not make an award unless the applicant has completed all required registrations and identifiers, including the unique entity identifier and System for Award Management (SAM) requirements referenced in Section D.6.7 of the NOFO. Because these registrations can take weeks, applicants are advised to start early. The notice also includes standard federal disclaimers: releasing the NOFO does not obligate the U.S. Government to make an award, does not commit USAID to reimburse any proposal development costs, and places all application preparation and submission costs on the applicant. Technical issues related to accessing the NOFO or using Grants.gov are directed to the Grants.gov Helpdesk via phone (1-800-518-4726) or email (support@grants.gov).Apply for 72066321RFA00007
