USAID Indonesia announces New Partnerships Initiative (NPI): Conflict Prevention & Recovery Program (CPRP)
Deadline: 29 July 2019
USAID through the Annual Program Statement (APS) has announced ‘New Partnerships Initiative (NPI): Conflict Prevention & Recovery Program (CPRP)’ to engage new and underutilized partners to expand and amplify the Agency’s work, particularly in contexts at the risk of, or recovering from, violent conflict.
The APS is designed to specific Administration and Agency priorities and criteria for new and underutilized partners. Individual USAID Missions will then request Concept Papers via Addenda as the first step in a three-step process that could result in USAID funding for an idea.
