USAID/Nepal plans to partner with local organizations to address Nepal’s long-standing disparities across gender, caste, ethnicity, and other social dimensions in ten municipalities.
USAID/Nepal also plans to partner with local organizations that directly engage with marginalized and vulnerable populations, including removing barriers for women, youth and marginalized and/or historically disadvantaged groups, which may include Dalits, Madhesi Other Caste, Tarai Janajatis, and Muslims.
USAID/Nepal also prioritizes partnership with civil society, the private sector, local governments, and other relevant local actors to co-design and implement solutions.
Local organizations should propose solutions that address the priorities of marginalized and vulnerable communities to improve resilience to poverty backsliding, while also strengthening existing local networks.
The total maximum anticipated funding amount from USAID/Nepal is $6 million.
Multiple fixed amount awards and/or cooperative agreements may be issued not exceeding $2 million per award.
The proposed period of performance of each activity is from two to five years.
Priority will be placed on supporting the most promising approaches to achieving the objectives described in this Addendum.
