National Governance Project in Yemen
In the near future, USAID/Yemen intends to announce a full and open competition to implement the Missions future National Governance Project (NGP) subject to the availability of funds.
This integrated, multi-sectoral program will be technically complementary to USAID/Yemens future flagship project, the Community Livelihoods Project (CLP).
NGP will be a key part of the Missions implementation program under the 2010-2012 USAID/Yemen Strategy.
NGP is intended to facilitate more equitable socio-economic development by strengthening public policies and institutions that will contribute to mitigating the drivers of instability in Yemen.
A more equitable, representative, transparent, responsive, and reliable Yemeni government that meets the needs of its most vulnerable citizens is one way to help achieve USAIDs objectives.
As the needs in Yemen are great, the implementer will focus on initiatives that directly satisfy the needs identified in USAIDs strategy, that are supported by the Republic of Yemen Governments (ROYG) or that would require relatively little effort to garner support, and that will have the biggest strategic impact for the resources expended.
Activities will quickly and effectively mitigate critical threats to stability in Yemen by reestablishing trust, respect, and, in some communities, legitimacy for the Government of Yemen.
Youth will be a particularly important demographic group throughout implementation.
The implementer will make particular effort to complement the efforts of USAIDs future CLP community-based interventions as a way to improve conditions in Yemens underserved, vulnerable communities.
The implementer also will partner with and make extensive use of local, Yemeni organizations during the implementation of the project.
The implementer also will coordinate with USAIDs future Monitoring and Evaluation Project to help ensure that program results are tracked against stability measures.USAID/Yemens 2010-2012 Strategy will be released when this solicitation is released for bid.
USAID anticipates an award for a base period of three years with the potential for follow-on activities dependent on performance and availability of funding.
Subject to the availability of funds, the estimated budget for the three year base period is approximately $20 million.Please note that the Mission staff will be unable to entertain meetings or respond to queries with prospective implementers at this stage.
For further information, please check the web site www.grants.gov in the near future.
