Opportunity Summary:
The Cambodia Basic Education opportunity is a USAID funding announcement issued by the USAID mission in Phnom Penh to support a basic education program in Cambodia. Through this program, USAID is looking for an organization to design and implement activities that strengthen basic education by making it more relevant to students and communities, improving the quality of teaching and learning, and expanding access so more children can participate in and benefit from schooling. The opportunity is aimed at practical, on-the-ground education support that can help address barriers to enrollment, attendance, and learning outcomes, while also improving what is taught and how it is delivered.
This grant is offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement, which generally means USAID expects to be actively involved with the recipient during implementation rather than simply providing funds and stepping back. The announcement anticipates a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $10,000,000. The funding amount is fixed at that level as both the award ceiling and the award floor are listed as $10,000,000, signaling USAID planned one grant at that approximate size rather than a range of possible award amounts. Cost sharing or matching is required, so applicants would be expected to contribute a portion of the overall project resources, either in cash or allowable in-kind contributions, consistent with the specific terms described in the full solicitation.
Eligibility is broadly described as unrestricted, meaning both U.S. and non-U.S. nongovernmental organizations can apply, subject to any additional eligibility details included in the full announcement. The program falls under the Education funding activity category and is associated with CFDA 98.001, USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas, which is the standard assistance listing for many USAID overseas programs.
Key dates in the notice show the opportunity was posted on June 23, 2009 (created June 22, 2009) and closed on July 10, 2009, with an archive date of August 9, 2009. Applicants needing help accessing the full announcement were directed to contact Sokunn Mealea Prak, an Acquisition Specialist, at phone number +855 23 728 344, referencing RFA 442-09-003, Basic Education. The funding opportunity number is USAID-CAMBODIA-442-09-003-RFA, and the title is Cambodia Basic Education.
