Organizational Interest and Capacity Questionnaire: The Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs (NEA) seeks to identify a broad cadre of potential implementing organizations through an Organizational Interest and Capacity Questionnaire, which will be used to identify pre-selected partners for future funding opportunities. Contingent upon the availability of funds, successful applicants (those identified as pre-selected partners) may receive invitations to submit full applications for select future funding opportunities over a period of four years. NEA invites organizations that wish to be considered as pre-identified partners to complete a web-based questionnaire and submit Statements of Interest through this Questionnaire. Interested applicants should read the full announcement for details on how to submit a Statement of Interest to this announcement. The Questionnaire is only one part of what is required from an applicant to this announcement.The Questionnaire will provide information about each applicant's organizational mission and activities, functional and technical expertise, country experience, organizational approach/methodology, experience working with nongovernmental, governmental, and/or private sector partners in the MENA region, and relevant accomplishments.
