Opportunity Information: Apply for 72066323RFA00004
The Highlands Resilience Activity (HRA) is a USAID-funded grant opportunity designed to support agriculture-focused resilience work in Ethiopia. USAID (Mission: USAID Ethiopia, Addis Ababa) is soliciting applications from qualified organizations to carry out this activity under a cooperative agreement, which typically means the implementer will work in close collaboration with USAID throughout the life of the award, with substantial involvement from the agency in planning, implementation decisions, and monitoring.
This opportunity is listed as a discretionary funding opportunity, with the funding instrument specified as a cooperative agreement, and the primary activity category identified as Agriculture. The CFDA/Assistance Listing number associated with the program is 98.001, which is commonly used for USAID foreign assistance programs. The eligibility status is described as "Unrestricted," indicating that a wide range of applicants may apply as long as they meet standard USAID requirements and can demonstrate the technical and organizational capacity to deliver the activity.
The opportunity was posted (creation date) on January 20, 2023, and the original application closing date was March 17, 2023. USAID indicates an award ceiling of up to $60,000,000 for the activity. The notice lists "ExpectedAwards:" but does not provide a number in the provided source data, so the total number of awards is not specified here. The funding opportunity title is "Highlands Resilience Activity" and the official funding opportunity number is 72066323RFA00004, which applicants would use to identify the solicitation in systems and correspondence.
In practical terms, the grant is positioned to fund a major, multi-year resilience effort in Ethiopia's highland areas, centered on agriculture and related systems that affect livelihoods and stability. While the brief description provided does not include implementation details, geographic focus within the highlands, or specific technical components, the title and activity category suggest programming aimed at strengthening resilience in highland communities through improved agricultural practices and systems-level support.Apply for 72066323RFA00004
