Active Citizenry Activity

This Special Notice from the US Agency for International Development (USAID) amends Request for Proposal Number 72029422R00002 to support the Active Citizenry Activity in the West Bank, Gaza, and East Jerusalem. The amendment provides responses to questions from potential offerors, extends the response deadline, and revises requirements in the original RFP.

The purpose of the amendment is to empower Palestinian citizens and civil society actors through a five-year cost-plus-fixed-fee contract implementing three components: enhancing governance and institutional capacity of CSOs; increasing participatory community development and civic participation; and promoting transparency, accountability, and advocacy efforts. The response due date is extended to May 16, 2022, and offerors are invited to propose a total estimated cost for implementing the activity at a level of effort below USAID's estimated 52,484 person-days. Eligible contractors can clarify requirements through questions, and the amendment provides responses on indirect costs, grants management, budget instructions, and other terms.
