Opportunity Information: Apply for 72052221RFA00001
The USAID/Honduras "Generating Green Economic Opportunities through Local Partnerships to Deter Irregular Migration (Local Works) Activity" is a discretionary USAID grant opportunity focused on environmental and green economic development as a strategy to reduce the drivers of irregular migration in Honduras. The activity is framed under USAID's Local Works approach, which generally emphasizes locally led development by supporting local organizations and partnerships to design and implement solutions that are rooted in local priorities and realities. In practical terms, the opportunity is meant to back efforts that create or expand environmentally sustainable livelihoods and economic opportunities, with the broader goal of helping people see viable, safer futures in their communities rather than feeling forced to migrate.
USAID/Honduras plans to make up to two awards under this solicitation. The awards are structured as Fixed Amount Awards (FAAs), meaning payments are typically tied to the completion of clearly defined milestones or deliverables rather than reimbursement of incurred costs. This approach is often used to simplify administration, focus on results, and manage financial risk by paying for verified outputs. The solicitation also notes a renewal grant approach, which usually indicates an initial period of performance with the possibility of additional funding or continuation based on performance, continued relevance, and other conditions laid out by the agency. While the total award ceiling listed for this opportunity is $1,700,000, the final amount and structure for each award would depend on the selected applicants' proposed activities, budgets, and the outcome of USAID's review and risk assessment.
The opportunity is issued by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), specifically the USAID office in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the activity category is listed as Environment. The CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number associated with the opportunity is 98.001, which is broadly tied to USAID foreign assistance programs. The solicitation was created on March 15, 2021, with an original closing date of April 29, 2021, indicating the timeframe during which applicants were expected to submit their summary applications according to the instructions in the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO).
Eligibility is listed as "Others," with direction to consult the NOFO's "Additional Information on Eligibility" section for specific clarification. That phrasing typically means the competition may be open to a range of entities but with important conditions or preferences that could include local organizations, local non-profits, community-based groups, or other locally rooted institutions aligned with Local Works principles. The notice emphasizes that applicants should read the NOFO carefully to understand the program objectives, the summary application submission requirements, and the selection process, and it highlights that award decisions will be based on the merit review criteria described in the NOFO and will be subject to a risk assessment. In other words, even a strong technical proposal must also satisfy USAID's due diligence related to an applicant's capacity to manage funds, deliver results, and comply with applicable rules and reporting requirements.Apply for 72052221RFA00001
