Opportunity Summary:
The Brazil Partnership Development Program (Funding Opportunity Number APS 512 15 000001) is a discretionary USAID grant opportunity focused on building new partnerships that advance USAID/Brazil environmental priorities. The central aim is to bring together capable organizations and partners to strengthen efforts in three closely related areas: biodiversity conservation, protection of indigenous lands and natural resources, and applied biodiversity science, technology, and innovation. In practical terms, the opportunity is geared toward activities that help conserve Brazil's biological diversity, reinforce protections for indigenous territories and the resources tied to those lands, and support real-world applications of scientific and technological approaches that improve biodiversity outcomes.
USAID planned to make up to three awards under this announcement, with an estimated total funding amount of USD 2,500,000. Individual awards were expected to fall between a floor of USD 500,000 and a ceiling of USD 2,500,000. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the funding activity category is Environment. The opportunity is tied to CFDA Number 98.001, which covers USAID foreign assistance for overseas programs.
Applicants were required to provide cost sharing or matching, meaning USAID expected awardees to contribute their own resources (cash and/or allowable in-kind contributions) alongside USAID funds. Eligibility was open to both U.S. and non-U.S. entities, specifically non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and commercial (for-profit) organizations, with the note that additional eligibility clarification would be provided in the full announcement.
The opportunity was posted and created on February 20, 2015, with an original and final closing date of August 19, 2015. The listing identifies the agency office as USAID Lima (Peru), and provides a point of contact for access issues: Cecilia Yanez, Senior AA Specialist, phone +51 1 618 1432, referencing APS 512 15 000001.
