Opportunity Information: Apply for 72011121RFA00002
USAID Armenia issued a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for the "Armenia Civics for Engagement" activity, seeking proposals to implement a civics-focused engagement program under a cooperative agreement. The opportunity is administered by the U.S. Agency for International Development, USAID-Yerevan, and was posted on Grants.gov as Funding Opportunity Number 72011121RFA00002. The opportunity category is listed as an earmark, and the funding activity category is identified broadly as "Other," with additional clarification expected in the full NOFO text.
Eligibility is restricted to local organizations and locally established partners, as defined in Section C of the NOFO. In practical terms, this means only entities that meet USAID's specific criteria for being locally based or locally established are allowed to apply, and applicants need to confirm they meet those standards before investing time in an application. USAID indicates it plans to select the applicant or applicants that best align with the activity objectives, using the merit review criteria laid out in the NOFO, and final selection is also subject to a risk assessment described in Section E.
Funding details indicate an award ceiling of $5,000,000, with USAID expecting to make up to six awards. Applications were originally due on August 31, 2021 at 1700 Yerevan time. Because the award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, recipients should anticipate substantial involvement by USAID during implementation compared with a standard grant, consistent with how cooperative agreements typically operate.
The notice emphasizes several compliance and process requirements. Applicants must submit all information requested in the NOFO and satisfy all eligibility conditions to be considered for an award. Applicants are also responsible for ensuring they are working from the most current version of the NOFO, since USAID may amend the opportunity and will post updates on Grants.gov. The agency specifically notes that it is the applicant's responsibility to regularly check for amendments and to ensure the full NOFO has been downloaded correctly, and it disclaims responsibility for data errors that occur during transmission or file conversion.
USAID also highlights federal registration requirements that can affect eligibility and timing. Applicants may not receive an award unless they have met all unique entity identifier and System for Award Management (SAM) requirements referenced in Section D.6.g. Because SAM registration can take weeks, applicants are urged to start that process early to avoid missing submission or eligibility milestones. For technical issues with Grants.gov registration or access to the NOFO, the notice directs applicants to the Grants.gov Helpdesk (1-800-518-4726) or support@grants.gov.
Finally, the NOFO explains how questions will be handled and clarifies that the notice is not a promise of funding. Questions must be submitted to the points of contact listed in Section D by the stated questions deadline, and USAID will share answers received before that deadline with all potential applicants through a formal amendment posted on Grants.gov. The government also makes clear that issuing the NOFO does not commit USAID to make an award or reimburse any costs associated with preparing or submitting an application; all proposal preparation and submission expenses are borne by the applicant.Apply for 72011121RFA00002
