Funding Information
Estimated Total Program Funding: $20,000,000
- Award Ceiling: $5,000,000
- Award Floor: $5,000,000
Eligibility Criteria
- USAID/Peru is targeting both potential Resource Partners and Implementing Partners or a combination of the two for Peru New Partnerships and Private Sector Engagement Initiative.
- Resource Partners can be either U.S. or non-U.S. private sector businesses, foundations, financial institutions, entrepreneurs, investors, philanthropists and others who can identify and suggest ways to use their financial or other resources to collaborate with USAID/Peru.
- Implementing Partners are non-govemmental or private sector entities (for-and non-profit) that can engage and work with Resource Partners. Implementing Partners may provide the leverage themselves (which cannot include USG funding from other sources) but the preference is that they secure outside funding from a Resource Partner for the projects they are proposing to implement.
- Implementing Partners applying for USAID funding must fall under the definition of USAID’s New Partner Initiative, i.e. they must be either a “New Partner”: An individual or organization that has not received any funding from USAID as a prime partner over the last five years, or they must be an “Underutilized Partner”: An organization that has received less than $25 million in direct or indirect awards from USAID over the past five years.
