Opportunity Information: Apply for DOS RWANDA PE 2017 02
The U.S. Embassy in Kigali, working under the Bureau of African Affairs at the U.S. Department of State, offered a competitive grant opportunity focused on preventing malnutrition in Huye District, Rwanda. The program was structured as a discretionary grant, meaning funding decisions depended on the strength of the proposal and how well it matched the goals of the notice. The overall intent was to support a single, targeted project that could contribute to reducing malnutrition in a defined geographic area, rather than funding multiple smaller efforts across the country.
This opportunity was listed under the title "Rwanda: Prevention of Malnutrition in Huye District" with the funding opportunity number DOS RWANDA PE 2017 02. It fell under the health activity category and was associated with CFDA number 19.700, which is commonly used for U.S. Department of State public diplomacy and related assistance programs. While the short description does not spell out the specific interventions being sought, the framing indicates an expectation that applicants would propose practical, locally relevant strategies to prevent malnutrition in Huye District, likely involving community-level prevention approaches, coordination with local stakeholders, and measurable outcomes tied to improved nutrition.
The maximum award amount (award ceiling) was set at USD 250,000, and the U.S. Mission to Rwanda expected to make one award. That combination of a single anticipated award and a relatively defined ceiling suggests the Embassy was looking for one lead implementer capable of designing and delivering a cohesive project, managing implementation and reporting, and demonstrating clear results within the budget limit. The eligible applicant category is listed broadly as "Others," with the notice indicating that applicants needed to consult the additional eligibility language in the full announcement for clarification, which typically can include nonprofits, NGOs, civil society groups, educational institutions, or other qualified organizations depending on the Embassy's criteria.
Key dates were also clearly defined. The opportunity was created on August 9, 2017, and the original application deadline was September 9, 2017, giving applicants roughly one month to prepare and submit proposals. The issuing agency was the Department of State, U.S. Mission to Rwanda, and the instrument type was a grant rather than a contract, which generally implies the recipient would have more programmatic flexibility, provided they met the stated objectives, complied with grant conditions, and delivered the required monitoring, evaluation, and financial reporting.
In practical terms, an applicant responding to this notice would have been expected to present a well-structured project plan tailored to Huye District, including a clear problem statement related to malnutrition, a prevention-oriented approach, an implementation timeline, a realistic budget under the USD 250,000 cap, and a monitoring plan showing how progress and impact would be tracked. The competition format indicates proposals would be reviewed against one another, so clarity, feasibility, evidence-informed methods, and strong local engagement would likely have been central to being competitive.Apply for DOS RWANDA PE 2017 02
