Applicants should ensure that proposals are aligned with USAID/Senegal’s resilience priorities in Burkina Faso and Niger, including the Resilience and Economic Growth in the Sahel – Enhanced Resilience (REGIS-ER) and the Resilience and Economic Growth in the Sahel – Accelerated Growth (REGIS-AG) activities. Preference will be given to concepts that show impact in the following targeted geographic areas: Tillabery, Maradi and Zinder regions in Niger and Seno, Yagha, Komondjari, Gnagna, Namentenga, Sanmatenga, Bam and Lorou provinces in Burkina Faso. Unless otherwise specifically stated herein, all terms and conditions of the FY2016 – FY 2017 GDA APS apply https://www.usaid.gov/gda/global-development-alliance-annual-program. As stated in APS No. APS-OAA-16-000001, USAID expects to receive alliance proposals that leverage private sector resources at a minimum of 1:1.
