Opportunity Information: Apply for 72016518RFA00001
The "Informed Citizens - Resilient Society" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number 72016518RFA00001) is a USAID/Macedonia notice tied to an upcoming activity that USAID planned to launch in North Macedonia. Rather than being a full solicitation for proposals at this stage, it is presented as a Request for Information (RFI), meaning USAID is gathering input from the partner community to shape and refine the final activity approach before moving into a formal funding competition or award process. USAID notes that two supporting documents were provided with the announcement: an activity design document describing the planned activity concept and structure, and a separate set of questions intended to collect specific feedback from interested organizations.
From the funding snapshot, the opportunity sits under the broad "Other" categories for opportunity type, instrument type, and activity category, which usually signals a pre-solicitation step or a non-standard instrument that may later be clarified once USAID finalizes the program design and procurement approach. The listing indicates an anticipated award ceiling of $5,000,000 and an expectation of one award, suggesting USAID envisioned a single prime implementer leading the effort (potentially with sub-awards or partners) at a relatively substantial scale. The CFDA number associated with the funding is 98.001, which is commonly used for USAID foreign assistance.
In terms of who could engage, eligibility is labeled as "Others," with the details referenced in an additional eligibility field not included in the excerpt. In practice, that usually means the door may be open to a range of entities beyond a single standard applicant class, such as local and international NGOs, civil society organizations, firms, consortia, media or civic institutions, and other implementers, depending on the final rules USAID sets. Because this is an RFI, the immediate "action" for interested parties would have been to review the design document, respond to USAID's feedback questions, and submit recommendations that could influence objectives, implementation methods, partnership structures, monitoring approaches, or risk considerations.
Administratively, the notice was issued by the Agency for International Development, USAID/Macedonia (USAID-Skopje). It was created on July 31, 2018, with an original response deadline of August 10, 2018, giving potential respondents a short window to provide input. Overall, the opportunity signals USAID/Macedonia's intention to invest in an activity centered on strengthening informed citizenship and societal resilience, while using the RFI process to test assumptions, gather local and technical perspectives, and improve the final program design before committing to an award.Apply for 72016518RFA00001
