Who can apply

This opportunity was open to the applicants described in the notice.

• Others (see text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" for clarification)

Implementing Partners applying for USAID funding should fall under the definition of USAID’s New Partner Initiative, i.e., they need to be either a “New Partner”: An individual or organization that has not received any funding from USAID as a prime partner over the last five years, or they must be an “Underutilized Partner”: An organization that has received less than $25 million in direct or indirect awards from USAID over the past five years. USAID/Peru will accept Concept Notes from implementers who do not meet this criterion, but the evaluation criteria will give preference to “New” and “Underutilized” partners.

Is this a realistic fit?

• Past USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas awards averaged $8.7 million; this notice allows up to $20.0 million per award.
• Most of the program's money (54% over five years) went to nonprofits.
• The notice requires cost sharing or matching funds, so you must contribute part of the project cost.

What the grant funds

Peru New Partnerships and Private Sector Engagement Initiative seeks to engage the private and civil sectors in priority areas, as defined by the Government of Peru (GOP) and the United States Government (USG). USAID/Peru will prioritize private and civil sector-driven solutions, multi-stakeholder partnerships for shared value, and innovation. USAID/Peru encourages forging partnerships that promote collaboration with the private sector and civil society in the joint definition of development challenges; identification of the most promising, impactful solutions; and mutual contribution of resources. Focus is placed on local solutions that bring multiple stakeholders to the table to collaborate and systemically change how assistance is transacted, and results are achieved to build a sustainable model that will hopefully continue well into the future. Ideally, solutions will involve building the capacity of the Government of Peru (GOP) so that it will be able to tackle development problems as they arise.
