Additional Information

Agency Name: Agency for International Development
Description: The objective of this APS is to make significant strides in the overall goal of conflict mitigation, peace, and reconciliation in selected eligible conflict-affected countries (see Attachment 1: List of Eligible Countries and Country-Specific Instructions). In addition, this APS seeks to contribute to USAID’s developmental objectives in an affected country or countries.

“People-to-people” programs are one approach among many to conflict mitigation. While a diversity of programs and approaches may be considered people-to-people in nature, most entail bringing together representatives of conflict-affected groups to interact purposefully in a safe space. This type of work addresses divisions within a community that may be rooted in group differences such as ethnicity or religion, status, class, or political affiliation. People-to-people projects generally address patterns of prejudice and demonizing that reinforce the perceived differences between groups and hinder the development of relationships among parties to a conflict. The aim is to create opportunities for a series of interactions between conflicting groups in the community to promote mutual understanding, trust, empathy, and resilient social ties.

This funding opportunity is intended to fund conflict mitigation programs with a people-to-people approach, and to derive lessons learned and best practices for future people-to-people programming. Lessons learned will be incorporated into future programs and funding opportunities, and will inform DCHA/CMM’s research agenda for conflict management and mitigation. DCHA/CMM is currently undertaking a global evaluation of grants implemented since 2004 under this APS.
