About this file

This document is an Attachment 4: Risk Analysis for a federal grant opportunity. The purpose of the risk analysis is to identify internal and external risks associated with the proposed project, rate the likelihood and potential impact of the risks, and identify mitigation actions. Key details include:

The risk analysis should address risks affecting the realization of project objectives and outcomes, risks to the organization, and risks to the safety and security of personnel. Applicants are required to rate the likelihood and potential impact of each risk as "High," "Medium," or "Low." The risk analysis should also address the risk of fraud, corruption, and inadvertent benefits to terrorists or their supporters. The Embassy requires all recipients to conduct thorough risk assessments and take necessary mitigation actions, but will not take responsibility for any risks incurred by the recipient.

The risk analysis is related to a federal grant opportunity from the U.S. Embassy in Yaounde, Cameroon, under the FY 2023 Climate Grants Program. The grant is open to experienced Cameroon-based Civil Society Organizations working in the areas of Environment to advance sustainable landscapes. Grant awards are contingent on the receipt of funding by the Embassy before September 30, 2024.

Attachment 4: Risk Analysis

The purpose of the risk analysis is to identify the internal and external risks associated with the proposed project in the application, rate the likelihood of the risks, rate the potential impact of the risks on the project, and identify actions that could help mitigate the risks. The risk analysis should include gender-related risks, including, but not limited to, gender-based violence.

A risk analysis should not be considered a one-time exercise or a static document. Organizations should conduct adequate risk analysis and remediation for all its operations and advises that risk analysis and remediation occur throughout the life of a project and should result in revisions to risk analysis documents and processes as necessary.

A suggested format for a risk analysis document is below. Applicants should include all assumptions and external factors identified in the logic model in the risk analysis. Under “Description of Risk,” the risk analysis should address any risk of fraud and corruption, as well as assess the level of risk that the proposed program may inadvertently benefit terrorists or their supporters. Under “Likelihood of Risk” and “Potential Impact of Risk,” applicants should rate the as “High,” “Medium,” or “Low.” Additional lines can be included in the risk analysis table as necessary.

The safety and security of recipients and beneficiaries are of utmost importance. The Embassy requires all recipients to conduct thorough risk assessments and take all actions necessary in accordance with those assessments to mitigate those risks. The Embassy will not take responsibility for the risks incurred by any recipient.
