Opportunity Information: Apply for 72052621APS00001
USAID/Paraguay is soliciting proposals under the opportunity titled "Paraguay Culture of Lawfulness and Local Works Initiative" (Funding Opportunity Number 72052621APS00001). The initiative is structured to bring private sector actors and civil society organizations into closer collaboration around priority needs identified jointly by the Government of Paraguay (GOP) and the United States Government (USG). At its core, the opportunity is aimed at strengthening longer-term sustainability and deepening the real-world impact of development investments by mobilizing local and non-governmental partners, rather than relying only on traditional top-down programming.
The program is organized around several interconnected focus areas. These include strengthening the rule of law, supporting the formalization of economic opportunities (helping individuals and businesses transition into the formal economy and access its benefits), expanding civil society oversight (improving transparency, accountability, and citizen monitoring of public institutions), advancing local works (community-level or locally driven infrastructure and service improvements), and addressing challenges related to the COVID-19 pandemic. USAID notes that further detail on these areas is provided in the solicitation materials (referenced as Section H, "Other Information," specifically the section describing program funding areas), indicating applicants should align proposed activities to these defined priorities.
A notable feature of this opportunity is that USAID/Paraguay is open to providing both financial and non-financial support. Financial support typically refers to funding for activities, implementation, and related program costs, while non-financial support can include forms of technical assistance, convening power, capacity building, partnership facilitation, or other assistance meant to help partners execute and sustain results. The funding instrument type is listed as "Other," and the activity category is also listed as "Other," suggesting a flexible approach that may accommodate different partnership models or implementation mechanisms depending on the proposed intervention.
In terms of scale, the opportunity lists an award ceiling of up to $40,000,000 total, with an expectation of making around 10 awards. The posting is categorized as a discretionary opportunity under CFDA number 98.001 and is administered by the U.S. Agency for International Development, specifically USAID/Paraguay (USAID-Asuncion). The opportunity was created on April 30, 2021, with an original closing date of April 29, 2022. Eligibility is broadly indicated as "Others," with the details to be clarified in the full solicitation, meaning prospective applicants would need to consult the additional eligibility language in the official notice to confirm whether their organization type, registration status, and other qualifications meet USAID requirements.
Overall, this grant opportunity is designed to fund and support partnerships that reinforce lawful governance and accountability, expand legitimate economic participation, strengthen civil society's role in oversight, deliver locally relevant public works, and respond to pandemic-related needs, all while emphasizing locally anchored solutions and durable outcomes.Apply for 72052621APS00001
