USAID’s Bureau for Policy, Planning and Learning (PPL), Office of Science & Technology (S&T) is developing a new grant opportunity focused on University Engagement through Higher Education Institutions. This initial phase involves a Draft Request for Applications (RFA) designed to gather questions and comments from public and private higher education institutions and other interested parties. This is explicitly *not* a call for applications, but rather an invitation for input to shape the final RFA. The feedback received will be crucial in developing the definitive program guidelines. The future grant itself will employ a two-step application process, beginning with Executive Summary Applications, followed by full submissions, aiming to foster impactful collaborations with the academic community.
