Opportunity Summary:
The Strengthening Human Resources for Health (HRH) Program is a USAID/Ethiopia funding opportunity designed to support a five-year effort focused on improving Ethiopia's health workforce and the systems that develop, deploy, and retain that workforce. The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means USAID expects to have substantial involvement during implementation (for example, in technical direction, coordination, and monitoring), rather than providing funding with minimal interaction. The selected recipient will be responsible for delivering the program objectives and results laid out in the official program description, which is referenced as the definitive source for the goals, expected outcomes, and performance expectations.
This opportunity was issued under Funding Opportunity Number RFA 663 11 000009 and is categorized as a discretionary grant opportunity within the health sector. USAID anticipates making a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of up to $55,000,000. The ceiling for the award is also listed as $55,000,000, indicating the program may be funded up to that maximum level depending on the submitted application and USAID's final award determination, while the floor is listed as $0, signaling there is no stated minimum award amount. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning applicants are expected to contribute resources toward the program in addition to USAID funds, consistent with the terms described in the full announcement.
Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning the competition is broadly open to different types of entities (such as nonprofits, for-profits, educational institutions, and others), subject to any additional eligibility clarifications included in the full text of the announcement. The opportunity was posted on March 17, 2011, and while the original closing date was April 4, 2011, the current closing date reflected in the listing is November 14, 2011. The archive date is December 14, 2011, which is the point at which the opportunity would be expected to move into an archived status on the listing platform.
