DIV ANNUAL APS

Agency: Agency for International Development

Assistance Listings: 98.001 -- USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas

Last Updated: November 27, 2024

Funding opportunity

Summary

The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is seeking applications for a cooperative agreement or grant from qualified entities to implement the Development Innovation Ventures (DIV) program. Eligibility for this award is not restricted. This funding opportunity is authorized under the Foreign Assistance Act (FAA) of 1961, as amended. The resulting award will be subject to 2 CFR 200 – Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, and USAID’s supplement, 2 CFR 700, as well as the additional requirements found in Section G.


DIV will make awards under this APS to successful applicants on the basis of their ability to further USAID’s goal of dramatically improving or saving the lives of the poor in developing countries, as well as their ability to adhere to DIV’s core principles and provide excellent value to the U.S. government to substantially contribute to these objectives.


Through a year-round grant competition, Development Innovation Ventures (DIV) sources proposals for innovations that address international development challenges and improve the lives of people living in poverty in developing countries around the world. DIV provides tiered funding to pilot, test, and transition to scale (i.e., grow to reach the highest number of beneficiaries possible) those innovations that demonstrate evidence of impact, cost-effectiveness, and the potential to scale.


USAID intends to make an award to the applicant(s) who best meets the objectives of this funding opportunity based on the merit review criteria described in this Annual Program Statement (APS), subject to a risk assessment. Eligible parties interested in submitting an application are encouraged to read this APS thoroughly to understand the type of program sought, application submission requirements, and selection process.


To be eligible under this APS, applicants must be responsive to this APS and must be sufficiently responsible to perform or participate in the final award. Awards are also contingent on DIV’s ability to obtain concurrence from the relevant USAID Mission. Note that USAID may not award to an applicant unless the applicant has complied with all applicable System for Award Management (SAM) requirements detailed in this APS. Applicants may submit an initial application prior to registering on SAM.gov, but the registration process may take many weeks to complete, and, therefore, applicants should begin registration as soon as possible.
