This USAID grant is for organizations seeking to form Global Development Alliances (GDAs) that significantly contribute to sustainable development globally. The U.S. Agency for International Development, through its Office of Development Partners, aims to increase the strategic value of partnerships with the private and not-for-profit sectors, aligning with the Obama administration’s emphasis on collaboration. Prospective partners are invited to propose activities supporting USAID’s international development objectives. Successful proposals must leverage at least a 1:1 resource match, bringing new resources, ideas, or technologies to address development challenges. Priority will be given to corporate partners demonstrating long-term commitment beyond USAID support. Since 2001, GDAs have cultivated over 900 public-private alliances, leveraging billions to reduce investment risks and foster development.

| Description: | USAID continues its commitment to more strategic alliances with the private sector in order to further increase sustainable development impact to advance global , peace, and prosperity . Our objective is not aimed necessarily at increasing the number of alliances. Rather we seek to increase the overall strategic value of our alliances for fostering sustainable development in the developing world.The Obama administration has clearly articulated its commitment to partnership as a priority. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has stated, I want more partnerships….I don’t think there’s any substitute for having seasoned, experienced professionals and experts leading our efforts on diplomacy and development and working, where possible, in partnership and coordination with the private sector and the not-for profit sector.”The Secretary has also said, “I think it’s a real opportunity for us if we can figure how best to better coordinate and facilitate the private sector and the not-for-profit and religious community of the United States on behalf of humanitarian and commercial efforts.”The Office of Development Partners (ODP) of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) invites interest from prospective partner organizations to form Global Development Alliances to carry out activities in support of USAIDs international development objectives. Alliance partners are expected to bring significant new resources, ideas, technologies, and/or partners to address development problems and challenges in countries where USAID is currently working. Successful proposals will bring at least a 1:1 resource leveraging to focus on priority development activities within USAIDs manageable interest. Proposals which involve corporate funding partners and corporate partners that demonstrate a longer-term commitment to a GDA activity after USAID support ends will also be seen as more competitive.Since 2001, USAID, through Global Development Alliances, has cultivated more than 900 public-private alliances with over 1,700 individual partners to contribute billions in combined public-private resources. Through our Global Development Alliances, USAID can facilitate access to broader financing options, assist in skill and knowledge development, and apply its extensive knowledge of country environments to help reduce the risks of investing in some of the worlds poorest countries. This solicitation is encouraging and creating the competitive environment for new alliances to be created in FY 2010. |
